A different method, but just FYI if it may help: I have a 20 ft long outrigger canoe that is very unwieldy to deal with getting over the rail. I bought a set of small suction cups for $20. Attach one to the bow of the craft, one on the stern with a line on each and it lifts out of the water easily. The suction cups have amazing lift capacity as long as the lift force is vertical. Sideways pull will slide them off.
