When the cob are going off you have just got to get there fast or you will miss out.

How
do the legs go with that?
I have wondered that before when you see boats run up the beach like that.
Don't some of the pro's go up the beach like that on the south coast?

Legs
Running them up doesn't hurt the leg unless you are too slow on the tilt switch and not enough speed to carry it up.
Saw a crayboat decky hit the wall at Hamelin bay when the boat came up the beach then slid all the way to the wall on a big bed of wet kelp. Nearly pissed myself laughing seeing his face when he knew he wasn't going to stop in time.

So its not an issue for the hydraulics being pushed up fast?

Used to run our Navy Dive boat up the rock break wall
on many occassions as to get from forward to reverse gear you had to have the engine top dead centre and this just did not happen every time. No damage though. This was an ex US Navy yard tug boat. Caused us numerous dramas including one time when turning around in the basin ended up ploughing into the bow of a frigate that had just come out of the dry dock after undergoing a 4 month refit. No damage to the dive tender but heaps to the frigate.
On another occassion during a Kangaroo Navy exercise off Rockhampton we were coming back to our Landing Craft that had the bow down. Normal procedure was to have the 40HP with the tilt unlocked and run straight up on the bow deck plates. On this on occassion the Chief forgot to unlock and coming in at WOT smacked straight into the edge of the bow. No spares onboard so had to wire everything down so we could continue with our part of the exercise.
