I bet it didn't. These diesels were very large and I suspect each piston in high rpm sucked quite a few cubic feet of air rather quickly. There is a way to find out. We need to know the litre of each piston, the cubic feet air within the boat. How many revolutions (intake stroke) each piston is making. I do not have access to this information.
We also have to consider that the air taken is not replaced as the boat is submerged. I bet it gets real ugly real fast.....
