Beautiful. This is roughly around 30 rpm at dead slow. That's large engines running and i love it!!! :)

It's more that B&W used to be danish - MAN is and was always a germen company, and MAN now owns B&W, ;)

Kannst Du mir sagen wieviel Einspritzdüsen die pro Zyl. haben, und wo die sind
(oben seitlich vom Auslassventil)? Die dicke isolierte gebogene Leitung die ganz oben auf das Gehäuse von dem Auslaßventil geht, ist das die hydraulische Steuerleitung für das Auslaßventil?

Thanks for your reply

@pensoken, if something goes wrong in the middle of a monster wave, you're pretty fucked up no matter what kind of spare systems you have. It takes some time to start an engine as big as that.
Some ships have "take-me-home" emergency propulsion systems that guarantee a safe return to port in case of, for example, main engine failure. For example the shaft generator can be used as an electric motor to rotate the propeller, powered by the auxiliary generators.
Is there a spare engine on some ships when something goes wrong especially in the middle of a monster wave and what does it feel inside the engine room when ships encounters a heavy storm?

@pensoken
Allmost all ships have only one engine for the obvious reason: Its cheaper.
If there's more than one reason it's rarely for backup but for technical reasons.
For example: supliers have 2 or more engines and propellors for better manoeuvring. Passenger ships have more engines with large electrical power plants to adapt to changing conditions like sailing , manoeuvring and being alongside to facilitate load changes.
feels like shit in a storm.
