Now that I have bought the Revo 11 and the rack, next thing on the list is how to store. Right now is on the garage floor, upside down resting on pool noodles. I have 2 options, ceiling hoist or wall brackets. Which is the best option? Will hanging on the sides affect the hull if I use the wall brackets? For the ceiling option, I have narrowed it down to: 1. Thule 571 Box Lift. Designed for concrete so I am not sure this is the best option? 2. Harkin Hoister. Looks difficult to install (12 ft ceiling) and many options, which one to get? For the wall bracket option, I have looked at: 3. Sea 2 Summit Aquasling. Are the straps wide enough? 4. Sea 2 Summit Aquaracks. Any potential hull damage? 5. Talic brackets. Are they worth the price? Isn't the strap too thin? Thanks in advance for any guidance. |

I hang mine on wall brackets (on its side). The wall brackets are padded with foam. No deformation yet. |

Hobie only cautions against having the boat on its side on the ground so all the weight is carried by the center of the side of the boat. With J hooks each hook is supporting half the weight. |
