RedactedNarrative: While motoring from Little Creek Marina in Norfolk to Nortons Marina in Deltaville, the forwards mast shroud parted.  This caused the mast to become unsupported and it collapsed under it's own weight.  The mast and its associated rigging fell into the water and made the vessel unstable.  The operator called for assistance and the US Coast Guard arrived on scene.  The US Coast Guard decided that the vessel was in danger of capsizing due to the high seas and decided to tow the vessel into port.  The boat was towed to Riverwalk in Yorktown and moored.  The next day the boat was transported to Nortons Marina in Deltaville under its own power.
