Kevin, I put jack stands under my boat to balance it more from side to side and blocked the keel fore and aft as well as under the nose of the keel to take the actual load. Didn't like the idea of a jack pad pressing against a thin hull anywhere. Tom B On Sun, Apr 20, 2014 at 9:05 AM, Kearns, Kevin P <kkearns@pitt.edu> wrote:
All,
Next week I'm putting my M15 on jack stands for a few days to touch up the bottom paint. Does the bottom of the keel need to be supported on a block while on the jack stands? The marina that is helping me caters to power boats, not sailors so they will not likely be much help.
Thanks, Kevin
