ABSTRACT:
A cartop hoist and carrier apparatus has a crane rotatably mounted on a frame that is adapted to be secured to the top of an automotive vehicle. The crane has two spaced apart suspension points for two respective hoisting lines that are led to a winch for simultaneous hauling in or paying out. The two hoist lines provide stability to an elongated load against both tilting and twisting. When the frame is mounted on a vehicle roof, the crane can be swung outboard to raise an elongated load, such as a canoe, from alongside the vehicle. The crane can then be swung inboard and the load lowered to rest on the frame.
