I, for one, welcome our new orca overlords!
Because they know that if they kill anyone rich enough to afford a boat that some jackass will kill them back. So they keep it to property damage.

This one has useful comments, like...
Rudders certainly look like a fin...best way to disable prey is to maim a fin. The orcas have learned power vessels are of sterner stuff.
The article is about orcas, but that video at the top is not an orca and just happened to sink a small fishing boat while it was feeding. Pretty sure that incident was an accident and the whale wasn't trying to sink it, it was just breaching and eating.
