    Hard to get at places.

    I have been working my tail off refurbishing a 396V Ranger that I bought this winter. I have everything I can get to looking and working like new.
    The problem is I can't get my buffer into the areas right behind the fenders of the trailer. It's a tandem axle trailer as well.
    Is there a safe way to jack up the boat to get access to these areas? I have plenty of Jacks, but I don't want to damge the hull. The old girl is pretty heavy especially with a 200 HP Merc on the back.
    Suggestions?????

    If you have a cherry picker or a frame tie on to the back tow eyes and lift it up.

    put a 2x8 or 2 right under the pad and jack away stay right at the edg of the transom that is the strongest place to jack. Even the 30' are jacked by that point
