A schematic showing how a casing for the propeller needs to be added with hydrofoil ships. A casing allows several advantages: it eliminates the risk of fatal accidents (with crew, divers, ...), it eliminates damage to marine species, it reduces the risk of damage to the propeller (eg from floating objects as ropes, materials, ...), it may finally also increase output power similar to the working of a pump-jet. The casing can be added do-it-yourself, as too the hydrofoils, also (though not required), the engine can be converted to run on (oxy)hydrogen or liquid nitrogen.
