They flex a bit. I've noticed it on mine when on jackstands, particularly in the stern quarters.

You'd like your trailer to support the hull, via the bunks, alongside a good portion of the keel trunk. I'd have to go over and look at mine to tell what length it does that. I suspect about six-eight feet. And the trailer's forward pads should gently pinch the bow between them.
