ABSTRACT:
A propulsion device comprises a water intake and a conduit for conveying water from the intake to an aperture. Apparatus is provided for forcing the water through the aperture in the form of a water jet as well as for subdividing the water into segments and accelerating each of the segments into the air. The method for propelling the nautical vessel comprises flowing water through a water intake in the vessel and conveying the water through a conduit from the intake to an aperture. The water is forced through the aperture in the form of a water jet and subdivided into segments which are accelerated into the air so as to provide a reaction force for propelling the nautical vessel.
