A handheld underwater aircraft includes a battery compartment (12) and propellers. There are at least two propellers, which are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the battery compartment (12), and are connected to the battery compartment (12). A special design with axes of the propellers being unparallel with an axis of the battery compartment (12) is adopted, and unparallel included angles make component forces generated by the various propellers in a direction of motion of a non-underwater aircraft offset each other, and enable the underwater aircraft to maintain balanced and forward-forward motion. The design with the axes of the propellers being unparallel with the axis of the battery compartment (12) leads to a little power loss, but avoids a larger power loss caused by the impact of water on the human body, thereby comprehensively improving the thrust of the underwater aircraft in use.

A handheld, detachable implement for propelling a paddleboard which affixed to a distal end of an oar, the implement comprising a propeller, motor and power supply. The oar and propulsion implement may be formed as a single integrated piece or held together using a friction fit. A plurality of sensor and indicator integrate into the implement.

The present invention provides an apparatus, method and system for utilizing commercial cargo containers. The present invention utilizes containers made autonomous by coupling a container with a detachable propulsion system, having a motor and navigation and steering controls, permitting the rapid, controlled, efficient and safe delivery of cargo containers individually by water. Ballast units, deployment systems and control via remote units are also disclosed. The containers, utilizing their inherent buoyancy, can move autonomously according to a preplanned or remote controlled route to a specific location.
