Everyone’s complaining that this doesn’t do anything and is counter productive, but you know what this looks like to me?

Propaganda of the deed. Someone will look at this and think “I know better things to spray her superyacht with than paint…”

The bottom of the ocean would be pretty hard to clean.

They should put the billionaire on the bottom of the ocean, not the boat. The boat might be useful for something.

Billionaire’s yacht? Hardly. But it may be scrapped. Expensive furniture and tech sold, high quality engine and parts repurposed.
