Well, the article says, it hit a heavy steel cable. On the picture you see that the top cable is still under tension and therefore probably not broken. Anyway, top cables today - well here where I life - are data and ground cables and not that heavy. I don't think it is strong enough to pull a mast down. On the other hand, the six high voltage cables - mostly aluminium with a steel core - are all at the same level. How could he have cut all of them in a row and still be able to land the ship? The damage on the ship isn't extensive.
