Default I was stoopid. Did I do any harm?

I had my drives trimmed all the way up. I was washing the boat and ran one motor about 15 Min while I flushed it.
Started the other motor, and ran it about 10 seconds before I realized that I had the drives up; so I quickly lowered them. No weird noises or anything. . . .

Any harm done???????????????

Probably not. I am betting you have XR's and they have the trim limit kit installed. Just check for noises and replace u-joints this winter. If they were turned hard inone direction or the other you might have done some damage.
