Default Lift and trailer for 38 scarab excel

Ok, buying 38 90 Scarab Excel. Bought trailer and after looking at it the boat may hange over the back 2 to 2 and a half feet. If I get tounge weight correct will this be a problem?

Other question is my lift is big enough to pick it up but the tanks are only 17 feet long.......sooooo that means the bunks are only about that length. I can get longer bunks but the tanks are stilll only 17 feet. Will it be hard on the boat for so much to hange over each end?

Any idea where the center of gravity is?

if the hull is supported at the back all the way to the transom, i dont think it hanging over the trailer frame is a big deal

You really need to support the stern, all the way to the transom. Having the bow hang over on your lift is no big deal.
