The gas turbines on my old ship drove the main reduction gear by pushing the
hot exhaust gas over a turbine, which was mechanically connected to drive an
input shaft. This was called a fluid coupling. The red. gear brought the speed
down from some high RPM to about 100 RPM, and then the propell

The CVTs used in cars today in most cases is LITERALLY a snowmobile belt drive

I wonder if you could make a hydraulic drive system that would survive it?
Otherwise its a good place for a series hybrid...
