That way i still have the boat supported by the bunks to keep it from flopping over. I then block each side and blocks under the keel up front. Then pull on out from under it and voila! My reason for doing this is its easer to lower the boat closer to the ground. I am not to happy to get under one more than afoot off the ground.

Yeah I was SMURFED recently getting what I could on the trailer...blockin' it up off the trailer is the only way to get to the rest...I let the toungue all the way down, then blocked up the center of the stern...then raised the toungue, which lifts the stern after it bottoms out on the blocks...w/the tounge up, block up the bow, drop the tongue again and VOILA!...she's flyin'!!...stiff leg the sides...jack and block again as the axles go out from under and never had to tie it off at all...the trailer jack does the work...if it hadn't been for the trailer lights, I'd have blocked the chines....but this couldn't have worked better...
BTW..about to be SMURFED again soon...whoopee...one thing I do is set up a fan and stay upwind of the sander...works pretty good....
