Usually, the pitch of the propeller can be reversed.

The Hellespont Fairfax is the Ti Oceania, after a change in ownership. All four ships are slightly different in details, which has driven me crazy, as complete hi-res photos of any one ship are just not there. Two of them (Ti Asia and TI Africa) have been converted into floating offshore production and storage units off Qatar. Ti Oceania and Ti Europe have most recently been chartered as just floating storage units, waiting for the price of oil to rise. I believe only Ti Oceania has resumed sailing.Those low-rev engines are massive, and some have only five or six cylinders, I seem to recall.
