I would chain those 2 front stands together so there is little chance of them pulling away from the hull. Good luck with your project!

AudioFn - how do you tell? They say InstaTrim on them. Your jackstands are a little far forward, there isn't much weight up in the bow and as long as nobody is going to be going into the boat while its on the stands (which they shouldn't) I would move them back to just slightly in front of the helm area. |

Definitely chain them together.
The Instatims are a Bennet-esque trim tab. Not k-planes. Your jackstands are a little far forward, there isn't much weight up in the bow and as long as nobody is going to be going into the boat while its on the stands (which they shouldn't) I would move them back to just slightly in front of the helm area.

Ok I will move them back tonight when I get home... And no one will be in the boat. |
This is way scary!Please do not work under that boat with the current set-up.
Notice the adjustable stands in front.Built with a wide base. Use cinder blocks,4x4's,or even pavers,but start with a wide base at the ground and work your way up like a pyramid. |

I think for a driveway job you did great. As long as all the weight is on the keel the stands and blocks should only be used to balance the vessel.

[QUOTE=SmurfOnAGixxer;2859208]Should I add more support under the keel? How can I go about changing it now?[/QUOTE
Keel support looks fine.I think you need more rigid supports under the aft corners. |
The issue with the pavers isn't that they are unable to support the load, it is that you have a single stack. Would be relatively easy to kick the middle of the stack out and then down goes your boat. I.E. that kids game, Jenga I think it is?
