question about engines damage

Hi , i got all my engines damaged and seems they can't be repaired . so i have a question . first are they definitly damaged or not (pic) , if so is there an option to put emergency dinghies at sea after having scuttled the boat or to call for help by radio . i sent a report by radio but after 2 days no answer ..

If the engines are 100% destroyed the can't be fixed. You've still got to left working so you should be able to make it back to port.

No you still have two. Did you ever try to get the sub moving?

It looks like you have 2 left, but the bottom line is that you can't move, so apparently not.

My understanding is that Dice Holder is right; the game really only gives you two engines, so it looks like your outta luck.
