I served on the USS Tripoli LPH-10, a helicopter carrier. It was about
600 feet long. Had just one engine. One time off the California coast we
floated for about 12 hours while they worked on it. This was a brand new
ship, I was part of the commissioning. This was around 1966. Perhaps
that's why it's now mothballed.

There is a reason why the USN likes to buy it's jets with two engines.
