lifting a wilderness system ride kayak up over my balcony.
I live in a house and I want to lift my kayak up on my balcony. How
do I do this? I imagine its done with pulleys to lift the kayak and you have someone stand on the balcony and when the kayak gets there they hoist it over the rail. How do you arrange the pulleys? thanks Mike D |

How high is the balcony, and how strong are you? If it's one story up, a person
on the ground could stand the kayak up on end and help the second person on the balcony simply lift it up. Once it came up halfway over the railing, it would tip onto the balcony. ****************************** Got wood?

You could actually do this alone if need be by rigging the slings around the kayak on the ground and hoisting it up from the balcony. |
