Disclosed is an apparatus that floats at the surface of a body of water over that waves pass. Passing waves, and/or the motions they impart to the apparatus as they pass, result in a net and/or effective propulsion of the apparatus in at least a first direction relative to the geometry and/or structure of the apparatus, and typically, at least in part, toward a direction from that waves approach the apparatus.

A fluid propulsion system configured to propel an ambient fluid through a propulsion channel. To do so, the present invention includes a hollow main body having a propulsion channel extending therethrough. The main body includes a base structure, a flexible bladder attached thereto, and a fluid (e.g., liquid, gas, or plasma) enclosed within the bladder. The present invention further includes a field source that produces an electromagnetic or magnetic field. The bladder and/or the enclosed fluid is configured to respond to the electromagnetic or magnetic field. Movement of the bladder in response to energization of the field sources alters a degree of occlusion of the propulsion channel. Energizing sequential field sources causes the occluded section of the bladder to propel the ambient fluid through the propulsion channel creating a reactionary force to propel the fluid propulsion system in the opposite direction.

A jet propelled watercraft includes a first exhaust pipe connected to an exhaust port, a catalyst storage connected to the first exhaust pipe, a second exhaust pipe connected to the catalyst storage, and a water lock connected to the second exhaust pipe. The catalyst storage and the water lock are located outward in a width direction with respect to the exhaust port of the engine in a plan view of the jet propelled watercraft.

Disclosed is a compact egg-shaped propeller, including an outer shell, an inner shell, and a driving motor unit arranged in the inner shell. The outer shell is detachably connected to the inner shell; the outer shell is egg-shaped; the outer shell is provided with a front cover at a top of the driving motor unit; the outer shell is provided with a jet orifice at a tail portion of the driving motor unit; blades are connected to one side of the driving motor unit close to the front cover; the driving motor unit is connected to a main control compartment; foldable handles are connected to a left side and right side of the main control compartment respectively; and the foldable handles are movably connected to the inner shell. By means of the layout, the gravity center is centered, the structure is compact and simple, and the appearance is simple and beautiful; the blades and the motor are designed in front, and the semi-circular front cover prevents debris and hands from entering; a battery indicator can display current remaining power to a user; a buoyancy block ensures that the whole device does not sink down after a user loosens the hands in water, facilitating search; and when the device is not in use, the handles can be folded, thereby facilitating storage and carrying.

A boat includes a hull, a deck, an engine disposed between the hull and the deck, and a jet propulsion unit including a jet nozzle configured to jet water therefrom. The jet nozzle includes a hole to which a water passage is connected and is configured to supply pressurized water from the jet nozzle to a water intake opening located in an interior of the hull. The water intake opening is connected to an interior water passage disposed in the interior of the hull and between the hull and the deck. The interior water passage is connected to a deck hose used to wash the boat.
