While I was in we had those ships draft markings with the PROJ on the hull. They were not so much for us but for the tugs and harbour pilots to use. Granted, they did tell us when we needed to do a low pressure blow in port when the boats draft got a little deep. As for the DSRV hatch markings, now THOSE need to go. In shallow water they would be REALLY visible from above. They are only put on for deep dives following a major overhaul and sea trials.
