    Trailer Repair

    OK, insurance man sent me a check for enought to buy 2 fenders, and have frame painted, can do it all if I do the labor, and add 25 dollars.....anybody got a good suggestion on how I can get the boat off the trailer temporarily so I can do the repairs? I don't have access to a place on the water to tie while I do the work. I would like to lift it off the trailer, maybe build some type of frame for it to sit on, any suggestions?
    A bad day fishing is better than any day of work.....

    Re: Trailer Repair (flametamer123)

    i let the trailor jack all the way down and put the stands under the jack plate then jacked it all the way up and used a 4x4 held up with saw horses under the bow eye then let the jack down and roled the trailor out from under it

    theirs probly a better way but it worked for me heres a pic of the back of the boat

    Build the frame, raise the trailer (w/ trailer jack), slip heavy duty tow strap under and secure, lower trailer, jack the rear (floor jack placed on trailer), place rear supports, lower. Work on trailer. If you need details let me know. I had my boat in the air over a month while I re-did my trailer.
