Re: jack stands for boat
I have never done a Marada, but I have done a 23ft Wellcraft. first of all, don't try to do it by yourself, get some friends to help out. And get some cinderblocks and 2x4's. Here's what we did. We lowered the tongue of the trailer as low as possible. The we blocked up the stern. Then we raised the front of the trailer as high as possible and blocked up the mid section. We also secured the stern with some cables to some stakes in the ground to keep the boat from going forward. Then we hooked up the trailer and slowly pulled the trailer out. You might have to move the forward blocks around to get them past the trailer (fenders, rollers, axles or whatever). One other thing. Make sure you are on flat, level ground. Otherwise the boat could tend to shift.<br /><br />To get it back on the trailer, just do the reverse. You can hook up the boat to the winch and start cranking it. You will "pull" the trailer under the boat.<br /><br />Good luck.
