Instead of a pulley system. I use 4 hooks (actually eyes) screwed into the ceiling with two ratcheting tie down straps. I leave one looped up and the other in a long loop. I put one end of the kayak in the short loop and and grab the strap on the long loop, set the other end of the kayak in the long loop, pull the strap, pulling that end of the kayak up to the ceiling and ratchet it a couple times and I'm done. If you have two kayaks you can put the other right underneath using the same eyes but anothe set of straps. Total cost <$20.
