when i have my boat 84 470 alp

when i have my boat 84 470 alpha one on muffs in the driveway at low idle when i put it in gear it makes a gear to gear grind ive never run the prop higher than idle now what im wondering is when im in the water it goes right into gear with no noises is this normal? and i know its not good practice to run the prop out of water
 
"Going into gear,Yes.Shifting

"Going into gear,Yes.Shifting must be done "firmly" to avoid damage .
Just more audible out of the water."
