<div>It was a 2HP motor. My source is the book Saucer in the Sea by Terry Shannon, which has some photos you would probably find useful of the saucer with fairings removed.</div>

<div>Does anyone know what the size of motor was that drove the the jet  pumps in the  saucer sub.  They say it could do 2 knots.</div>
