Storing a PA

So I just picked up a PA12 and was wondering how you other PA owners store them. Upside down, on it's side, on the floor, on saddles? Had an Outback and that was upside down. Currently on a trailer but will probably get rid of the trailer 'cause I don't really need it. Already have a kayak rack due to also having a tandem but was wondering the best way. Thanks for any input.

PVC pipes with pool noodles around them

I have limited space in my garage so I store my PA 14 on it's side hanging from two straps connected to the wall and lift it about a foot off the floor with the bottom against a carpet attached to the wall. Works great and is out of the way.

So are the both of you laying your PA's right side up?

Right side up. The thing I like about the pool noodles is the even weight distribution. You don't get any areas that could potentially warp under its heavy weight.

When I first purchased my PA I thought I was going to be able to get away with just storing on the garage floor. Wellllllll, about a week later I got tired of moving it around so I decided to setup a hoist/winch system.

I purchased all of the parts at Home Deport, if I recall I paid under $100 for everything. None of the items that I purchased have a test load of less than 155lbs.
