A big rope start?
In one of the pictures I believe I saw what appeared to be a large electric motor.

Air start, no clutch or transmission, direct crank to prop shaft connection. To reverse, cam relationship to crank is altered, engine runs in opposite direction.

Good ol dad
Dad Ran a power plant at a Hospital in town and he would take me in the power plant sometimes it was so loud we all had the big head sets on just hear, they had 7 Wakashaw 12 clylinder gens going with 2 on stand by. He showed me a piston from 1 it looked like a round table and the rod was taller than me.He put his hand on my sholder I thought he was going to tell me something,What i didnt know he had signald the control room to fire the Generator I was standing next to it had an air starter also I nearly jumped out of his hand He just laghed as he held on.Thanks for posting hadnt though of this is years.Good ol Dad

A 2 cycle diesel will run either direction. The cam does not have to be altered for it to run backwards, but I can see how it would need to be for optimum performance. However, if the oil pump is a gear pump it will pump the wrong direction, when turning backwards. Oil pump must be considered, but this thing may have electric motors running multiple oil pumps. Also depending on the type of blower used, it may or may not push air, when turned backwards. The blower specs for this thing would be interesting in and of itself.
The 2 cycle diesels I was around had a very narrow rpm range for peak power output. It is a drawback in most applications, but when your only designing it to run 100 rpm, it wouldn't matter.

Can't get the link to work. Do a search "108,000 hp". The bottom half of the crankcase gets laid down with the ships keel.
