Jack and blocks, if your not comfortable with that, launch and then work on the trailer. Don't worry about what anyone thinks. If anyone questions you, tell them it broke and you need to fix it. They will feel bad for you and leave you alone. Those repairs shouldn't take long at all.

Also when you are done. You will need to tweak the trailer to set the supports and rollers at the correct height, contact point on the hull and angle.

I did that when I bought a new trailer. Have tools and launch and re-launch over and over again to set it up for your boat.
