In reality, it isn't the boats that matter; it is the loss of more
industrial jobs.
The job losses are unfortunate. But weren't you also questioning the
justification of big, high fuel usage boats recently? Weren't you in favor
of a big tax on use and/or ownership of larger boats because they used more
fuel than you thought reasonable? Seems to me that your own bias leads to
job losses as well.
You can't have it both ways.

Sure you can, if you start making "green" manufactured products that
serve the transportation needs of the populace. That way, skilled
workers can find new jobs that pay family supporting wages with benefits.
