Default Cradle type boat lift cable unspools when lifting

They may spin free when unloaded, but not under load. How long have the
sheaves been out in the weather?

That's something I hadn't thought of, and the answer is about 7 years. Lift
was very rusty and the sides of the cradle beams were flaking out (rust and
corrosion) and pinching the sides of the sheaves.
