Overview
The Attwood Marine 11953-4 is an overhead kayak hoist system for storing a kayak, canoe, bike, ladder, or similar gear in a garage or shed. It uses a pulley setup that lets one person lift and suspend the load, with hooks and a locking mechanism rated to hold up to 120 lb.
Two 2-inch webbing straps help support the load with a broader contact area, which is useful when you are hanging a kayak hull between trips or through the off-season. The black finish keeps the look simple in a storage space, and the mounting hardware is included.
Key features
- Supports loads up to 120 lb
- Pulley system allows one-person lifting and overhead storage
- Hooks and locking mechanism keep the load secured once raised
- Includes 2-inch wide webbing straps for broader support on the hull or frame
- Works for kayaks, canoes, bikes, ladders, and other bulky gear that benefits from ceiling storage
- Mounting hardware is included for a complete hoist setup
Installation and fit
This hoist is meant for overhead storage rather than on-water use. It suits garages, storage sheds, and similar covered spaces where you want the boat up off the floor and out of the way. Before installation, make sure the mounting surface and supporting structure can carry the stored load and that there is enough overhead clearance for the hull and the lifting travel.
For kayak storage, the wide straps help spread the contact area instead of concentrating pressure in a narrow point. That makes this style of hoist a practical option when the kayak will stay suspended for longer periods between outings.
Use cases on shore
This setup makes sense for paddlers who keep one or two boats at home and need floor space back for a trailer, vehicle, or work area. It also works well in mixed-use storage spaces where the same hoist may be used for a canoe in one season and a ladder or bike in another.
