It’s his vessel because he paid for it. That’s how money works. There’s no other pronoun that is appropriate.
Here’s the rest of the article that completely unwinds how far you want to stretch that term:
“His” yacht made through collaboration:
“Not only have we designed a very unusual yacht that leans into Oceanco’s strengths of innovation and design, but the team has also been willing to collaborate with us on evolving the process.”
“His” yacht made to have the least environmental impact from noise or oil polution (Diesel hybrid electric engine):
Huge efforts were made to reduce noise and vibration, thereby creating a pleasant onboard environment. The hybrid diesel-electric propulsion system is whisper-quiet, and the engine room is positioned further forward to reduce noise. The built-in battery bank also allows for silent nighttime operation.
“His” yacht made to have little maintenance requirements so the crew can focus on science and research:
Leviathan is also incredibly low-maintenance. The off-white exterior and synthetic handrails require less cleaning, for example. That means the crew can spend less time on routine maintenance and more time on more important tasks. “We adopted a crew-centric approach that really digs into how Leviathan is operated and maintained,” explains Newell.
“His” thoughts on “His” yacht being used to better the scientific community instead of just him.
“Yachts have great potential to serve as platforms for scientific research,” adds Newell. “It’s about recognizing that you’re part of a broader community and ensuring the yacht’s presence adds value to the communities around it.”
How about you ask yourself how many scientists and engineers HE paid to have a job to work on this?
How about you ask how much he pays their research salaries still and provided them a better vessel to do their job on than anyone else?
Why do you insist that you know how to better spend his money when it’s already going to people that need it for a cause that’s needed?
Just because you want to claim his money could be used better doesn’t mean it currently isn’t being used well.
You just see a yacht and think the worse. Worlds far less black and white.
God how much money was wasted on havingthousands of people work on the design of his vanity project?
Yes, it’s better than other vanity projects, but it is still a wasteful vanity project.

Oh what a good billionaire, his efforts to make his onboard environment more pleasant is also beneficial to the outside environment! Such a giver!
The colour of paint chosen for his mega yacht really shows how much he cares!
And you haven’t been listening. I’m not repeating myself on this point anymore.
Literally the opposite of what I said at the end of my previous post. If you’re not going to bother to read what I say then what are we doing here?
