bales of hay or tyres underneath,eddie...a little tip,when putting boat back on trailer,leave jeep or car in neutral,a lot easier to get back on....

the tyres are on both sides damian not just along the keel so is shouldnt tip over.
you could also keep it propped with timbers up under the fender strip on the longliner :wink:
