That's a big shaft.

How does the pitch control work? How is that control transferred to the propeller?

Thats one mighty dirty engine room. The two most important components on the ship is the engine and the radio, yes? So both need to be in perfect order and clean.

I've seen cleaner engine rooms....

Well being military and American ship, I am assuming that I would never stand a chance of visiting this engine room especially whilst ship is making way (unless there is some rare exception that I am unaware of). Now, I was going to make query of manufacture of these engines or who is maker of these two diesels?...
Never mind! I reviewed watching again and I saw builder's plate. Kawasaki-MAN! I never knew that Kawasaki Heavy Industries Ltd. had joined forces with Maschinenfabrik Augsburg Nürnberg GmbH (MAN) (Today MAN &Turbo SE, Marine Division) for manufacture of marine diesel engines! Which leads me to my next question: age of these engines? Any idea when these two were built?
However, who is manufacture of your diesel generator sets? How many aboard ship?
Thanks -
Bet you wouldn't stick your penis on those rotating turbines lol
