Default Transfering Boat to blocks from trailer

I found some boat jacks on CL a couple of years ago and like to paint the bottom without reaching around and crawling under the trailer. I followed the directions you see on this site, lower the front of the boat, block the back, lift the front etc. It was a tedious process jacking up the bow and shifting the trailer forward a couple feet and then re-jacking to get the trailer out from under the boat. I set up the cross bar in the picture so I can slide the trailer out in one move. I use a come along to pull the trailer out slowly. To pull the trailer back in I use the winch on the trailer.
