Propulsion is through 4 X water jets powered by 36MW of gas turbines.

Shut down the defective unit, and make port at reduced speed. But that is not very dramatic.

That’s what I thought...there is redundancy in the propulsion plant....so for them to be completely dead in the water has to be something very serious.
