Just shedding some more light on what a huge undertaking this engine swap project is all about.
Listen to Fred, Chief Engineer on the M/S Mount Washinton in this video blog part 2. http://www.cruisenh.com/videoblog2.html

They are much farther ahead with this, as the new Cat engines are already in place. I thought it fitting to catalog the progress here in this thread.

My hope is that they make a video when Fred gives the heads up, "Engine Room, Go'na Light The Candle." Give all us fans an idea of what the new Kitty Cats are going to sound like!
