Looks great set of engines .

Is the engines going to {gear box /prop} or (generator to motor w/prop)?

Is rudder control at helm or the old fashion telegraph?

Great photos of dinner swimming beside the ship too.

Thank you

The engine speed is transmitted directly to the output shaft via a gearbox and a switch box for the controllable pitch propeller. The main engine always turns at the same speed during regular operation.
The rudder and engine are controlled from the bridge as standard. However, the main engine can also be started from the helm of the cheef.
Of course, the rudder can also be controlled manually from the engine room in an emergency.
When the autopilot is switched off and the boat is steered by hand, the helmsman stands in front of the small steering wheel in the centre of the helm station and monitors the position of the rudder and the course. The seat to the right of the helm is reserved for the captain. The left-hand seat is reserved for the 1st or 2nd officer of the watch or the pilot.
