RedactedNarrative: V1 was driving back to the marina at approximately 10:30 pm on April 30, 2021. Operator stated "it was dark and visibility was low due to the dark and he didn't really have any land marks to follow due to the darkness." Operator also stated that this was a new boat and he doesn't normally go out at night. Operator thought the shoreline of Sandpiper beach area was the entry into the marina channel instead of the shoreline. V1 was grounded onto shore and traveled approximately 24 feet out of the water before coming to a halt.  No injuries, there were life jackets in the boat yet the occupants were not wearing them.  No alcohol was involved.
