I don't think that will work. The problem will be when you are lowering the boat down the ramp. The axle/axles on the trailer will go where they want to go when you are lowering. If the trailer starts to turn and you have the jack wheel in the channel the trailer will start to torque the jack and will either pop it out of the channel or break the jack. Think about it. When you back staright down with a trailer it will have a tendency to turn to one side so you turn the vehicle to staighten it out. By doing that you are moving the front of the trailer either left or right. If the trailer starts to turn you have no way of turning it back. For your idea to work the trailer must be able to run perfectly staright down the ramp. Having the jack wheel in a channel does you know good if it starts to turn.
