Well, it took a couple of months, but I suppose it was only a matter of time...depthfinder was working fine (showing 20-25 feet), I was within the marked areas, but close to the fringe...next thing I know, the boat lurches and the engine raced..I was in 2 feet of water,and spitting sand...quickly had the 2 passengers in the back move to the bow with the other 2, and then shut her down and raised the trim....we pushed back into the channel, everyone jumped back on, and I checked the leg for damage...the prop was slightly scratched, but everything else appeared to be fine, so I fired her up and cautiously began to move forward...everything again seemed fine, and I was good to go...my question is this...should I be checking anything in particular to ensure that nothing was damaged? I was moving at about 25 mph, and doing @ 2400 rpm at the time of the grounding...5.0L VP, carbed...
