When I came in and was docking, the boat stalled twice when going from reverse to forward. Also since I was loading by myself I had to powerload the boat. As soon as I tried to get it on the trailer it stalled. When I pushed the key in it stayed running and went right up.

My advice is twofold.
1) Take it back to the mechanic that set your timing nd tell him what happened. Obviously he did not do his job right and it needs to be corrected.
2) Get yourself an electric winch for your boat. I'm partial to Powerwinches, but there are many good brands on the market, including the ones from Harbor Freight. That way you won't have to powerload your boat and you can guide it onto your trailer. My Powerwinch is the older kind that I have to use a lanyard to turn the winch on while I'm standing at the rear of the trailer guiding, but the newer ones have a wireless remote control. Either way it's a lot easier and makes one man loading an easy job.
