As with the rest I say one thing at a time.

1. get the motor off the boat
2. boat off the trailer
3. fix the trailer
4. put boat back on the trailer
5. install new power.

Wil be much easier to get the boat on and off without the weight and leanth of the motor.

For blocks, depends how high you want it off the ground?? Cinder blocks with some wood to cushion the boat. If you need to get it a little higher cause you want to sand and paint the bottom then go with stands.

Motor lift above can be rented at any rental place for 1/2 and hole days. I think at mine it was like $25 1/2 and $35 for the hole day.
But then the way you are going you will need to rent twice, so for about half the cost of the ones above. if you have the room buy your own, always good to have at the ready!!
