Question:

I need a simple hand crank winch that can pull a 70# kayak up a dock stairs ladder thats apx 9foot long. I just need to get the kayak to the top of the flat part of the deck. So from the beach whete I would hook it up, Id need apx 20foot of thin cable or rope that can handle 70#.

For your 70 lb kayak you could use the Buyers Products Trailer Hand Winch - 800 lbs # 337HW800S. This has an 800 lb capacity and comes with a 26' long nylon strap.
