    Hi, I am looking for details of electric motors to be used to power a superyacht.
    The power will be generated from diesel generators (e.g,CAT 3516B) however I have been unable to find details of electric motors. The yacht will be propelled by twin screw propulsion with a max. power requirement of 5000KW If anyone has any details on manufacturers of electric motors or even better suitable models for me, it would be greatly appreciated.
