So my boat ended up running aground on a high spot in some shallow water, actually got wedged in the sand and had to be pushed off. Speed was a little above idle, maybe 3-5mph max when it grounded. It was kind of stuck but we got it moved off (the lake bottom is all sand, no rocks or anything rough). The boat seemed to run and drive fine afterwards, didn't vibrate or get hot or anything but we took it real easy.
I just wanted to see if there's anything that should be checked out in more detail. Like would running up on the sand suck it into the intake? Should I change the oil? Impeller? Would the rudder, shaft, or any of that bend?
I'm sure this has happened to others, would like to hear the results from other instances of this and how it turned out
