Have seen too many yahoos that think driving on the beach at low tide is safe. I have launched a boat this way many times by utilizing worn tires and airing down to 12#. Yet, I do indeed have a winch on my front bumper for emergencies. Now, the way to use a winch in soft sand requires the use of a big fluked anchor that has saved my bacon to keep salt water out of my truck. But, I will say that I got stuck in a pile of schit, yes a cow schit pile, one time deer hunting late Dec. when everything seemed to be frozen solid. Not cow schit as it makes its' own heat and will stay juicy soft. Got my truck out but stunk to high heaven. MTG
