OK all of you trailer guys. How do you wax the hull areas that rest on the bunks? Does anyone have a system rigged to lift their boat off of the trailer or do you all just wax around the bunks?

Many folks recommend not waxing the bottom of the hull at all claiming that it will actually hinder performance. That being said, I wax only as far as I can reach.
That quote must have come from the guy who lost a bet and had to wax a buddies boat....
You my friend have never experienced a fresh coat of wax on the bottom then. I can personally tell you its worth it from everything from my 280, to the jetski. Waxing the bottom will make the boat glide like silk. Worth every coat... Now, don't expect it to last as long as the top does... I use a cheaper, easier coating on the bottom... But what a difference!!!
To be honest, I only wax as far as I can reach, so I have not done where my boat sits on the bunks. I also do not lay on my back underneath, I just go as far as I can reach which is usually the full front half (as its a vhull) and a foot in from either side on the back half. When washed, the gelcoat under there looks like the day I bought it, so I don't think I'm hurting things by not waxing these areas.
