Imagine if one engine is being repaired you must recharge both batteries but the captain wants both screws turning also. You must really give her the beans in order to make any headway. Ahead standard will be a tall order and ahead full speed nowhere in sight! Good luck to future Wolfpack engineers!

Does anyone know how the circuit from a motor acting as a generator was wired to the battery and then to the other motor? did they bridge the port and starboard batteries in parallel? Possibly you could arrange the switched in such a way to run the motors at double their working voltage for more power in an emergency for a short time or on accident and burn out the motors.
