Default Re: How to get the boat on blocks

This post is serious!

Take the boat to a ramp and launch it. Have a hydralic trailer meet you there and retrieve the boat on that hydraulic trailer. Then take the boat to where you are going to paint the bottom. Put it on stands and have a fifth one available so that you can remove one of the stands at a time 9replacing it with the fifth, only close to where you removed the first, then second, etc.

I'd suggest picking a yard that will let you paint it in their yard. Use a roller, it's relatively quick and will be ready to relaunch in a matter of hours or the next day.

Good luck.
