What size boat do you have FR Frank ? 20 or 23' ? That's an important distinction.

You use (3) 2x6 glued and bolted together - I assume you place this w/ the 2x6' pieces in a vertical position, as opposed to flat ?

As for the lifting, I was thinking of doing this w/ (2) bottle jacks, each lifted a little at a time until the boat was off the trailer. Then slide the trailer out. Seems like it would work, do you agree ?
