If your inboard boat runs aground what action should you take in addition to shifting the weight away from the point of impact?

If your inboard boat runs aground, in addition to shifting weight away from the point of impact, you should assess the situation and check for any damage to the hull or propeller. Avoid revving the engine, as this could cause further damage or stress on the boat. Instead, try to carefully back off the grounding by shifting the engine into reverse and using gentle throttle. If that fails, consider using a paddle or other means to help push the boat free.
