a question for Phil, I think. Gamma has 2 hp and weighs 2
tons. PC-12 had a combined 13 hp for 8 tons (10 main plus two
horizontal and one vertical maneuvering thruster). The Pisces
boats used a pair of 5 hp thrusters for 12-12 tons. So it is
beginning to look like about 1 to 1.5 per ton, now that I
think about it.</font>
