I was too quick to reply before (without reading all my messages).
Yes, we used a halyard to haul the dingy up on the foredeck too.

Subject: [Liveaboard] My method for quick stowage on deck
I use a spare halyard to lift my dink out of the water and put her
upside
down on the foredeck. The 4hp motor is taken off first and stowed.
I made a three point lifting bridle. (Trial and error on the bridle
legs
gave me the proper balance).
I pull her alongside, hook in the quick disconnect and a few turns
on the
halyard winch and she's aboard.
A couple of rachet straps across the dink and she's secure enough to
ride
out some very nasty weather.
The main problem I had was with fouled sheets as I tacked, but a
small line
in the right place prevents fouling.
