Should you however want to continue with the mod I have the following to share:

It now seems there're also some big ships there behaving pretty well with their engine power at 10%. ATM I'm chasing this vessel resembling a troopship (these stormy OLCE nights are very dark so it's hard to be positive yet) and the bugger is chugging along pretty fast, definitely at 10kts+ at any rate.

The seas are at least as rough as they were when I reported on the slow-as-molasses medium freighter, so maybe there's something there? Just an uneducated observation, though
I told you guys zillion of times.

Reducing the engine power doesn't reduce the ship's maximum speed, just increases the time for a ship to accelerate to said maximum speed. If it's 20 kts, the ship will eventually get there, but will take more then half hour.
