How do you switch two fiber glass boats from one trailer to another?
I have two boats, about 1,800 pounds each and I have two boat trailers. One trailer is broken and it has a boat on it and the other trailer is good but it has a broken boat on it. Both boats are too heavy to lift off the trailer and put on the ground. How do I put the good boat on the good trailer without putting the boats in the water to switch them?
I have never done this, but I have heard of people doing this. It takes planning, two or three people, and knowing what you’re doing around jacks. Here’s what they did:
Jack up the boat sitting on a trailer using a hydraulic jack and wood blocks for support and to protect the hull (not just from scratches, but to spread the weight across a larger area) simultaneously at six or eight points.
When the boat is above the trailer, s-l-o-w-l-y pull the trailer forward until the trailer’s cross bar almost knocks your supports down.
Start a new jacking point.
Repeat.
When you’re finished, the boat will be sitting on the blocks, and you can then back an empty trailer under the boat using the same technique in reverse.
Good luck!
