DSC01465 It's a slow process, I know, but it's the best way I know of doing this right now. A faster way and easier way to do this would be to support the bow with a long metal eye beam supported high enough to allow the trailer to be rolled right out from under the boat. I would shore up under the keel just as soon as it's clear of the back of the trailer. Then the beam could be removed. Two of the stands can also be move toward the bow of the boat about 6' or 8' from the other two stands on the stern. The keel of this boat can take the full weight of the boat while sitting on blocks with at least two stands to keep it from tipping. Two sailboat stands can be placed temporarily under the stern of the boat to keep it from tipping. Preferably, the more stands the better. I use four sailboat stands and one powerboat stand under the bow of the boat with the keel sitting on blocks. The boat needs to be level at all times when you raise/lower the hull with stands and the jack. Five of my stands can raise my boat with no problem. Is this dangerous? You bet it is. I take every precaution when I do it.

DSC01464 A tall car stand can be used in place of the powerboat stand. Once the powerboat stand is against the front of the trailer's cross member, I need to jack the boat up again and move the powerboat stand to the back side of the same or another cross member in order to move the trailer ahead a little more.

DSC01463 I'm jacking the bow of the boat from the trailer and using a straight powerboat stand to hold the height so that I can let the jack down and move the trailer ahead by hand and reset the jack again.

DSC01461 I bought these SB-3 Sailboat Stands at Brownell's Boatyard in Mattapoisett Ma. They manufacture these stands right there at the boatyard. I've raised an O'Day 26 with these stands just the way you see them pictured, along with my hydraulic jack.

DSC01460 It's safer to shore up under the stern with crisscrossed wood blocks along with the sailboat stands just to take some of the weight. The boat also needs to be made as light as possible by removing as much gear as possible.

Where to start. Cheap carpet got to go. Cushion, new color and fabric. Bench style seating has to go. Maybe two small chair, end table and add standard undercounter fridge.
