Ok, so I'm new to the game. Just did a big leap of faith and traveled the expanse that is the "Unterzee" and somehow survived by turning off my lights whenever I saw an enemy and just going around the long way. After finally making it back and limping back to Fallen London, I got a LOT of money for the port stops I made. My question.
What is weight? What does it do? I've read it has no effect on speed/fuel consumption so what is it?

It would be nice to get that barrels per hour compared with speed to get the equivalent of miles per gallon.
Unfortunately there's no particularly convenient miles-equivalent in the game, but:

rph being "regions per hour", or number of times you can travel horizontally from one edge of a region to the opposite edge.
Efficiency directly reduces fuel consumption, such that with 50% efficiency your engine will have half the bph an engine of that Power would normally possess.
It's not on the chart, but the Cutter equipped with an Impeller was only a smidgeon faster than the Frigate, at 87 rph.
