Has there been any other ships that have sunk since the Titanic because of iceberg impacts?


The simplest, and smoothest method is to fit a hydraulic pump on the drive shaft ( get rid of all the clutch system ) and fit a hydraulic motor on the prop shaft. You may have to experiment with gear train reduction, i've used a 2:1 on the motor in the end. It would be worth planning this anyway, you keep the motor out of the bilge and always have the option to easily change the max speed by changing the gears.
