Its a matter of simple physics. A wave length greater than 1.8um can only impact the surface of the oceans, the skin layer. This is where evaporation occurs and the layer just below the skin is cooler than the skin due to massive energy loss through evaporation. Your going to have to do some major learning about water and salt water dynamics of the oceans. Heating to depth can only occur by wavelengths of 0.2um-0.6um. The smaller the wave the deeper it penetrates. Energy captured by the skin is thrown off in evaporation. As the layer just below the skin is cooler than the skin, this means that the ocean never sees the energy as heat.
You're going to have to find many sources of information to draw from.
Here is a chart showing depth penetration by differing wavelengths.

The physics of evaporation isn't "simple" ... as demonstrated by your lack of knowledge in the matter ... if the air is saturated with water vapor over the ocean ... which is a common occurrence ... then there is NO evaporation ...
You need to apply the Equal Partition Theorem ... if energy has a route to equilibrium ... energy will take that route ... we have both evaporation and radiation happening at the same time ... and energy will conduct down the water column ... thus heating the oceans at depths ...
... and I NEVER said GHGs heat the oceans very quickly ... but they do heat the oceans ... 1.8 W/m^2 ... hah ha ha ha ha ha ... too funny ...
