The NIMBY argument is often one of aesthetics: windmills on the horizon will look ugly.
I want to see a barge with one of these windmills anchored off the coast at the proposed install spot. So people can actually see what one would look like in real life.
I know it's not representative of the array of windmills the projects seek to install, but it something.
Also, I wonder if the same people who object to the windmills ever raise objections to the boats with giant LED advertisement screens that creep past the beach close enough to shore that you can smell their engine exhaust.
