@Darrellg1 think you might want to paint up one of these? A bit of traveling involved though. First ones a 3616 Cat pumping out about 3400 HP in Africa. Second one is a little ship main engine on our ship here in Indonesia. Can’t remember the HP.. in the 25,000 range. It goes down another 2 decks. Don’t much matter now as it only ballast. Won’t run again.

I have a 3116 Cat in my truck, don't think it would qualify as a starter motor for that big puppy .

A few pics from my yacht.
The engine control room showing one of the azipods.
Between the engines and the third is some of the cylinder heads for one of the engines.
I usually have around two thousand guests for an excursion. I don't charge anything as I leave that up to another company. LOL
I was truly lucky to get a private ship tour through all the operations systems/departments on one of the Holland America ships.

All facilities were spotless. Even the waste water is treated before being dumped overboard. First officer said it was drinkable. Unfortunately (or fortunately) the spigot was jammed.
