jon f mn, About 10 years ago my sister moved to Florida. The roof on her boat dock was too low, you banged your head on it. Her neighbor built boat lists, so he had all the cable and pulleys we needed. The roof of dock was supported by 6 posts. I rigged up a moveable pulley system, used 2x6, cut the 6x6 supports in half.
