So there are FOUR engines to make the ship go through the ice and water? You mostly run on one? There are TWO engines, just for electricity?

Yes...that is correct. 4 Main engines, but mostly we run on one. In the thickj ice, we were running on 3. I was on the Bridge when they called for the third main, that was pretty cool. There are 2 for electricity only!
