I doubt the yacht did NY thing more than scratch the paint.
Old aircraft carriers have a 10-20" solid steel torpedo belt at the water line and below.

I correct myself, the midway In terms of the actual hull thickness, it is noted that the hull started at about 1/4 inch, but after several deployments, the thickness could increase due to paint and non-skid applications, potentially reaching up to 24 inches.

From the article:
“Maybe a fence around it or something like that, a barrier so the ship can be guarded, and a lookout,”
Yes, yes, a lookout. That way if they see a yacht coming at them they can turn out of its way. That’s some smart thinking right there.

A favorite memory:
Watching a kayaker in the in bound shipping lane north of Seattle WA, challenging a container ship for the right of way ... only one remained after their paths crossed.

The captain of the Exxon Valdez is still manning a ship?

There was no collision involved in the Exxon Valdez incident. And it is no longer in service.
