On my previous boat I put a jack stand under the frame in front of each tail light and then under the tongue. It was a lighter boat, but never had a problem.
The trick was getting the back stands under it. I lowered the front as low as I could, then put the two jack stands in place. Then raised the front which lifted the axle off the ground and then placed a jack stand essentially right under the winch post and then lowered the front jack down until it was suspended in air. Having it completely off the ground with a heavy boat may not be the best idea, but relieving some of the weight I think is a good idea.
