Default Re: Anyone local have boat stands?

Headed down to Ole`s tomorrow am. Anyone looking for anything at Sailorman on short notice?

My trailer is a 22/23 and was never set up properly. It was also neglected. I brought the full tool kit to delivery. It was crunchy. I learned a lot at DeSoto and talked more with the guys at the Hub. I just got her back on with the aft stands still in. Oh no! What happened? I have a 1" gap from the top of the fore end of the bunk to the hull. The fore v guide is all the way down and I really expected it to be right at close to max height when adjusted.

I Duct taped my level to a framing square and took copious notes. ???. One more call to the Hub.

I dropped the tongue down , took out the aft stands and presto, a perfect 1/4" gap. I`m still wondering how this could be. Weight? Bueller? Bueller?

I`ll get a few pics and post what I learned along the way.
Thanks Ole!

Cheers,
GFS
