So, when multiple crank arms are being operated simultaneously and are connected in parallel with each other to drive loads that, in total, are larger than any single drivetrane could manage; then the Captain which has responsibility for maintaining the velocity is supposed to be managing the system to maintain a steady velocity, which, implies stable prime mover speed.
