[QUOTE="lbursell, post: 161639, member: 3905"] I'm no expert, but here's my thinking: The boat has been designed and manufactured to float level. The bench seats are placed so that they will be level when the boat is floating. Same thing for a factory deck. With the boat steady and stable on the trailer, put your level on the bench seat or deck. Use the trailer jack to raise or lower the bow until your level shows level. That's level and you start your measurements from there. If I'm wrong, somebody please correct me, 'cause that's the plan I'm going with for my build. [/QUOTE]
