I have a Regal, dry weight around 8,200lbs. It sits on a three-axle
trailer, weight approx. 1,500 lbs. I have six so-so tires and will
have the boat sitting on a cement pad for the next 6 mo. or so doing
some major and minor work on it. I'm thinking that with all that
weight on the tires that if they lose air I may have a hard time
putting air in them where it sits. I suppose I could call AAA and ask
for a truck that has an air compressor. So my question is, could I
put a couple of floor jacks to help support the weight of the boat and
trailer? I've seen where cars that are stored for a long time have
something to remove the weight under the car. Has anyone done this?
I'm thinking that I'd need minimum four with each having a 2-ton
capacity. I'd have to figure out a way to lift the boat up to slide
the jacks under it.
Any comments or suggestions appreciated.

I did this for my sailboat...total 2300 lbs boat & trailer
and do it for my Princecraft/motor & trailer...maybe 800lbs
You know it's gotta be easier on the sidewalls and avoids that flat spot in
the tire thread.
