Estimated steady-speed with 2× Shinmaywa 2.5 m mixers (very rough)

What this estimate assumes (important):

Because this is calibrated to the 1.5 mph / 740 N-per-thruster point, the results below are best interpreted as “relative performance vs power” given that calibration. Real-world speed can be significantly different if actual drag is higher/lower than this implied drag (columns, braces, cables, wave drag, added marine growth, etc.).

Power per thruster (kW) Total electric power (kW) Estimated steady speed (mph) Estimated steady speed (kn) Estimated steady speed (m/s) Thrust per thruster at that speed (N) Total thrust at that speed (N)
1.2 2.4 1.19 1.04 0.53 ~467 ~934
2.2 4.4 1.39 1.21 0.62 ~634 ~1,268
3.2 6.4 1.50 1.30 0.67 ~740 ~1,480

Note: With your thrust curve dropping sharply by ~1.5 mph, increasing power mainly helps you accelerate and hold speed in disturbances; it doesn’t raise top speed much under this particular calibration. If you want, I can redo this using a geometry-based drag estimate (projected area + drag coefficients for the columns and bracing) instead of calibrating to the 1.5 mph point—just share the platform’s overall dimensions and how the columns/bracing are shaped (round/square), plus typical draft.
