RedactedNarrative: 0n 07/04/2016, I was notified by Capt that he was delivering a vessel from Beaufort, NC northbound on the ICW.  Capt was inside the vessel when he observed a sharp turn to starboard and then to port.  He went to the bridge of the vessel and noticed the vessel just went under the Virginia Dare Memorial Bridge.  Capt continued to transit to Great Bridge, Virginia.  While waiting for the bridge to open, Capt noticed damage to the port side of the vessel.  Capt reported the incident to the appropriate units.  No violations of law were noted.
