I agree,

I would feel very uneasy walking forward without the V stand in place. Keep some carpeting on the V part to avoid scratching the hull. I wouldn't imagine leaving the boat without chains snugly holding the opposite stands together either. Don't ever remove a stand to paint - many people have been killed doing that - get another stand to take it's place and chain it. Also, the aft bulkhead on a CD25 is exactly where that middle stand is, not that there should be much load being carried by the stand.

Jack stands and covers do not mix.

Also, do NOT tie any cover to the jack stands. If your cover gets loose in the wind, it can pull the stand(s) out (w/ undesired results). Tie the cover to the boat, under the boat or to weights hanging off the boat.
