Just thought of a compactish propulsion system for water. May not work. Largest single part would be a gas cylinder. Have a gas cylinder and put some kind of split nozzle on it for 2 outputs. Place a remotely controlled valve on each output and onto those have 2 pipes/ hoses running down into the water under the vehicle. Put a one way valve on each hose to prevent water entering the hose. Hopefully what should happen is when the vehicle is in the water release air out of the pipes to generate propulsion in the water. Problems: Limited by size of gas cylinder, Must be able to carry the extra cylinder, Vehicle will limit max size of cylinder anyway and System may not be able to give enough force to move the vehicle anyway.
