Are you planning to store P19 on davits?

About 6 mos. ago someone told me to place straps around the hull 1' fwd of
daggerboard and 5' behind. (approximately Cockpit hatch and bow hatch)

I have not confirmed with IM.

I'm getting frustrated! We can't store our P-19 at home and I can't find a
marina around here that has dry storage and a launch ramp that I can get to
without lowering the mast. But they all have hoists for launching keel
boats.

Has anyone ever put a bridle on the P19 for using a hoist to launch the boat?
I'm not interested in using straps and a frame, it takes too long. Can the
P19 take the stress and where would you put the attachments for the bridle?
