The diesel electric propulsion system drives a propeller by electric power. The conventional ships drive the propeller directly by the diesel propulsion engine. In a diesel electric propulsion ship, electric power generated by diesel generators can drive a propulsion motor and cover all required electric power at the same time. The diesel electric propulsion system can be not only people and ship-friendly, but also earth-friendly.
The Diesel Electoric Propulsion System
Increase Navigational Safety and Operational Efficiency (Dual System). Contrary to the conventional arrangement where the main diesel engine provides propulsion power and the auxilliary engines provide electricity, the diesel electric propulsion system provides electricity for both propulsion and energy needs of the ship. The need for only auxilliary engines means lower purchasing and operating cost.

When in foreign waters the courtesy ensign, often the national flag of that country, is hoisted under the starboard spreader of the most forward mast. On a mastless powerboat, the courtesy flag replaces any flag that is normally flown at the bow.
and proved a milestone in the development of European cartography. This work was called “Spieghel der Zeevaerdt” and included coastal profiles and tidal information much like the modern chart. It enables us to find the angle between the North and for example an offshore platform, as seen from our position.
