Post subject:  using a lift for a hobie

I want to keep my getaway in a boatyard with a lift so that I can keep the mast up. I'm not sure where or how to get a lifting bridle for the boat or where on the boat it would be attached. Is it something I can make myself, need to buy, or can be bought used? Do reenforced hooks have to be installed or can you attach to the cross bars? I don't want to leave it in the water and I know I won't use it much if it is in my driveway. Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

4 lines. each round the crossbars and coming together at the lift hook. Real short on the front lines and long on the back to get the balance point just aft of the mast typically.
