Of course, also keep in mind a couple of others things.
The yacht did not move. It would have drifted, unless of course, it was anchored. So it was anchored out there.. and very firmly, too. There -are- spots in the videos, where the cameraman does an admirable job of keeping a very steady shot. Steady enough imo, to see boat movement. There is none, whatsoever. Neither drift with the current (and yes, you move around in place, even if anchored), nor up and down wave movement.
Also, it was.. the ONLY BOAT. Why? Repeatedly? I'd have to look, but there is a good chance boats are not allowed to anchor nilly-willy in shipping lanes. That's why there are no others.
Unless this guys are deliberately hoaxing, they will have seen hundreds of boats and yachts. I'd like to think they know one when they saw it (or even a light from it). They filmed this because it stood out.
The biggest issue is the lack of movement imo though. I've done plenty of diving, as well as night diving. I've never been on an ocean that was SO calm, that there was absolutely no movement or drift, whatsoever. And you can't just park your boat anywhere, if close to shore.

The same thing can be said for this being an alien craft, and is in fact my first reaction when I first heard about this case.
An object, filmed over several years has barely changed position?
To me that says it's always there, probably still is.
I've considered the fact that boats will inevitably move about, I'm just throwing out this theory, since it's new (to me at least).
Now, for my reasoning on why I believe the yacht theory could be plausible.
Most people who moor their boats offshore regularly will use the same mooring spot.
This is particularly the case if it's moored off from where they live.
So, this could be why it appears the same, because it is.
So what about the sporadic sightings? maybe this has to do with the position of the moon, wind direction etc.
In short, only when specific conditions are met will the boat reflect moonlight towards Kumbergaz beach.
I hope that all made sense?
Oh and because it doesn't bob, doesn't stop it from being a boat.

If it doesn't bob, and it's on the ocean, something is wrong.
Here is a video of a moored boat probably in a bay protected by a breakwater (there is very little water movement).. on a dock. That "yacht" is not on a dock.

Even that boat has discernible movement. The further out you go, the more movement you get. That certainly isn't in a bay protected by a bulkhead or anything else.
There are some spots in the video where they have a very steady camera. There is no movement I can tell from the object. EVER. You'd think you'd at least catch some movement from time to time. I find none.
