Get yourself a few of these. Trailer wheels just roll right over the plates.

did you make this?

$1500+ brand new.:eek: (EACH) need 4

fixx
 

if you have access to a welder you could use 4 of the 20k bob cat trailer tougue jacks and weld a plate tothe bottom and top like the pic above..they look simple to make:drink:

I agree with jeff32 basically. After working in boat yards most of my young life it seems easy to me. But, if you really want to make it simple, Put the boat in the water and have a local guy with a hydrolic trailer set it in your garage for you. Most small contractors have trailers to fit 30 feet. Around my area, they get around 125. to $200.00 1 way. If you don't have stands, use 4x4's nailed perpandicular to the bottom, to a 2x6 10 ' long as a sleeper under the boat with a little piece of plywood on the top as a pad. If you use wood instead of stands use an extra set of blocks. 1 set every 10 feet. Or rent/ buy stands.

i do have access to a welder and i have a full fabrication shop. Matt would you mind posting a few more pics of your home made stands? What is supporting the bow of the boat?

thanks

yard arms are nice but not cheap.
