No offense, but I wouldn't trust my boat with that thing. It looks
inherently unstable.


Not only unstable, but the entire weight of the boat is supported at only
three points ... the bow and two points on the stern. I don't think I'd
leave a boat out of the water for long like that. Most boats that I see
on
the hard have blocks spaced along the keel to support the boat weight.

I'd be afraid to try that at all with my boat. I don't think it was
designed to be supported in that manner, and I'd be afraid it would break
right in two. I'd love to see some boat manufacturers weight in and give
an
opinion.

I would try it with your boat but if it were mine I would use a few more
stands as the boat come off the trailer.
