The present invention discloses a mobile operating platform for a paddy field, including a body, a power generating device, a movement control system, a draft control system and an automatic leveling system, where the power generating device, the movement control system, the draft control system and the automatic leveling system are all mounted on the body. The present invention has a compact overall structure, and utilizes the pressure of a water flow to realize the movement of the platform, and can fully utilize the characteristics of the water flow to reduce power consumption, and avoid the use of a heavy and complicated traditional walking device, the entire mobile operating platform for a paddy field does not contact the ground, saving mechanical power and avoiding damage to an aquatic crop; the draft control system adjusts a draft by the amount of water filled in a closed cavity in the body.

A vessel includes a vessel body, an engine, a propulsion device, a drive shaft, a partition wall, a bearing, an elastic member, an outer housing, and a positioning member. The drive shaft transmits a driving force of the engine to the propulsion device, and the propulsion device generates a thrust by the driving force. The drive shaft is inserted into an insertion hole of the partition wall. The bearing rotatably supports the drive shaft. The elastic member supports the bearing. The outer housing supports the elastic member, and is fixed to the partition wall. The positioning member positions the elastic member with respect to the bearing and the outer housing by pressing the elastic member.

A self-propelling watercraft system is provided. The watercraft has a base with a plurality of sidewalls extending from the base to form a cockpit. The base also has a recess, where a pump can detachably connect to the hull within the recess. The pump has an intake valve on a first end and a nozzle on a second end that is opposite the first end. The intake valve can intake water. The nozzle can jettison water received in the pump from the intake valve and agitate water surrounding the nozzle.
