If you are run aground in a outboard boat and you are not taking on water what is the first step in attempting to free your boat?

The first step in attempting to free your outboard boat after running aground is to assess the situation and ensure that it's safe to proceed. Next, shift your weight within the boat to help free it from the sand or mud, and try to gently rock the boat back and forth to create movement. If possible, use the outboard motor at a low RPM to help dislodge the boat without causing damage. If these methods don't work, consider using a paddle or pole to help push the boat off the obstruction.
