Captain rightfoot,

No excuses here for me - very soft sand and not enough momentum.

At the start of the beach is wasn't bad going, so 2 high seemed the right choice, but it got softer and softer, and with no opportunity to change down without getting bogged, I had no choice but to keep goingas fast as was safe to do so. (The beach was this soft the whole length) The exit at the beach was blocked by a number of cars watching to see if we would make it, and as I slowed down it just stopped. I engaged low range and locked the diff, but could not drive out. I think if the diff was locked in the first place, or I was in a suitable low range gear, I would have made it. The recent storm that dumped half a metre of very soft sand on the beach didn't help either.
