Which failure is induced when longship hogging overstresses rope rigging?

💡 Explanation

Hogging causes excessive tension; elastic rope elements reach their ultimate tensile strength limits via plastic deformation; because of creep, it results in mast collapse therefore rather than other failures from corrosion or chafing. Sails do not corrode.
