I would keep the pulling vehicle on solid ground. Run a rope or cable out to the trailer and pull it in. If it starts to sink then run and get the plywood.

If the soil is wet or has a lot of clay, the wheels of whatever used to pull will only work the ground ahead of the trailer into ruts. Yeah, you could have a chinese fire drill moving plywood sheets (my trailer is parked on 1/2", now) but the trailer wheels should turn or skid through/over most ground.
The only kicker is having a dolly wheel on the tongue jack or rigging a piece of steel as a skid (probably the better solution) so the tongue stays up.
Jebby seems like a fairly handy sort so it will be cool to hear the after-story.
BTW, anyone needing a 23' steel lifeboat (mud-free) can PM me. :B
