It would be super easy to get away with sinking known billionaire yachts worldwide if you do it right.
warg into the orcas?
Warm? Nah they've been doing it for fun. Just give them a lot of points for this one.
ITT: People who don't think $100m+ yachts have countermeasures for attacks like this.
Yeah, one of the big countermeasures being the people who live on board, as in, the crew. I hope they can sleep at night knowing they killed a working class schmuck. Fire, or these more outlandish ideas of explosives and scuba shit, will almost certainly get the crew members if it's enough to actually sink a yacht like this.
Hey look part of the crew died. Part has serious ptsd. And all that are left alive just lost their jobs. Meanwhile the billionaire has the boat insured so he gets his money back.
Super yachts are built similar to cruise liners. Compartmentalised below the water line. You breach one, it gets detected and will seal it off. They are obviously gonna be connected to several alert systems and will notify the owner or whomever is in charge of maintenance. If anyone does manage to damage the hull, gonna have to do it more than once.
Scuba certified activists. Sabotage the hull or fuck up the prop.
