Ep-40 if you run aground in an outboard boat and you are not taking on water, what is the first step in attempting to free your vessel?

In order to free your vessel when you run aground in an outboard boat and you are not taking on the water, the very first thing you need to do is just to stop the boat’s engine to stop it from moving then try to lift the out drive, and shift the weight away from the impact zone. Once this is done, you can already now assist the situation and you will be sure that the bat will no longer take into the water. You can now set an anchor in order for you to be safe from the force that can push you and the boat further. You can then use the boat hook so you can check how deep the water is around you.
