The main engines....
Just a WAG as we do not know anything about the boat that this machinery is installed in.
The 6B comes in varied hp ratings and is never used at 370 hp for displacement installs. Boats that would have the 370 versions typically are sized for gensets that range from 8 or 10 KW up to a 12.5 for the most part.
So again as an observation or a 'wild ___ guess' only I would be more concerned with main engines that are overloaded (overpropped) on a boat that had this more unusual combination.
