There was little confusion on the nature of the vessel before it was identified by commenters as the Olivia O. According to SuperYachtFan<\/a>, Ulstein Werft built the nearly 300-foot-long expedition yacht in 2020. It has a $200 million price tag, and its annual costs are around $20 million.<\/p>\n While the yacht may look strange, its amenities are luxurious. They include room for up to 30 crew and 14 passengers, a helipad, dual Rolls Royce engines, and an over 30-foot-long swimming pool.<\/p>\n “You shouldn’t have to suffer such an ugly ship spoiling that great view,” an unimpressed commenter replied<\/a> to the OP.<\/p>\n Olivia O has certainly been called out for its vibes-shattering looks before.<\/p>\n Arguably more ugly than the boat itself is its impact on the environment. While it’s unclear exactly how Olivia O adds individually, superyachts are one of the most polluting toys the ultra-wealthy can own. Indiana professor Richard Wilk told DW.com<\/a> that they are “by far the worst asset to own from an environmental standpoint.”<\/p>\n Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich’s one tallies up a whopping 24,250 tons of pollution each year. Other negative superyacht impacts on the planet include noise and light pollution, exhaust, and the impact on the local ecosystem, as Bloomberg described<\/a>.<\/p>\n These impacts are set to continue rising since superyachts are only growing in demand<\/a>. While there are some positive developments like Sunreef’s electric yachts, more work must be done.<\/p>\n On Reddit, the conversation mostly stayed on Olivia O’s polarizing appearance.<\/p>\n “Not my taste..” a Redditor said<\/a>.<\/p>\n “It looks like a Dr Evil support vessel,” a different Redditor opined<\/a>. “You KNOW there is a shark tank under the conference room\u2026”<\/p>\n Another user was a little more generous<\/a>: “That snub nose is very unique!
