But in a nutshell.
The engines are inline 8 cyl Enterprise Diesels 615hp each
Direct Reversing, Direct Drive, No transmissions, therefore no powerloss in transmission.
The props are 60 inch in Diameter

The top speed on the GPS is approx 14.8mph
Night cruises are typically around 9.9 mph

She slides through the water fairly well for her size.

The gentleman in that picture by the starboard engine is Doc Watson former Chief Engineer for Winni Flagship.
