Default 12 KVA Fisher Panda genset and 10kw 3 phase electric motor

Hi,

I have a 3000 rpm 11.8 KVA Fisher Panda generator that has both 1 and
3 phase outputs. I am looking to use the 3 phase output to power a 3
phase motor of around 10kW to drive a bow thruster in a barge at
approx 1500rpm. A colleagu has a Northern Lights 10KVA genset and
successfully powers a 9kW 3 phase motor in a similar set up. Would
appreciate any pointers - such as need for a capcitor bank to meet the
surge on starting.
