RedactedNarrative: On October 2, 2021, a 33'6'' Grady White was underway in the York River, Gloucester county. At approximately 2245 the vessel was headed northeast into the swash channel and struck a range light at the entrance to the channel. The operator stated he was attempting to travel a previous gps track and could not see out of the windshield well. The vessel sustained heavy damage to the bow above the water line and the bow pulpit was torn off. The range light was destroyed, leaving 2 steel pilings just above the water line. The vessel was able to make it back to shore under it's own power. There were 3 persons on board, the operator who was in the cockpit and 2 passengers in the cabin area. One of the passengers sustained injuries including a cut to the right side forehead (requiring 4 staples), a black right eye, a bit tongue and cuts to the right leg.
