Displacement and Horsepower
Resident 2B:
The Mount displaces approximately 700 tons of water (That is how they weigh ships, the amount in tons of the water displaced by the hull in the water). The diesel engines are 615 HP each for a total of 1230 HP. There are many other factors that determine the speed beside horsepower and displacement weight.
