I put this together to lift my canoe. My garage ceiling is 10’ so this gets up high enough to easily walk under. Complete cycle takes about 45 seconds. I welded up this bracket a few years ago to lift the hard top off my Jeep. It worked out perfectly to lift the canoe. The beauty of a worm gear is there is no catch or safety or release button. The gear stops when you stop cranking regardless of load. I removed the hand crank and rigged it so I can use a drill. It goes all the way to the floor or I can drop the boat in the bed of my truck
