The other way is to get some fuel hose and a double barb fitting to extend the gas line out the transom drain hole to the gas cans. Have some paper towels and/or kitty litter to soak up any gas you spill when you’re unhooking and hooking up the gas line extension.
I've used the second method with good results. Don't forget to raise the front of the trailer so the boat leans towards the rear.

If God didn't have a purpose for us we wouldn't be here, so
Live simply, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly.
(Leave the rest to God)

Silence, in the face of evil, is itself evil. Not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless.
