A propulsion assembly utilizes at least one fluid propulsion chamber operationally attached or mounted to a vessel. Each fluid propulsion chamber generally comprises an outer housing and an inner sleeve; the outer housing is slidably disposed relative to the inner sleeve. Each inner sleeve further includes at least one water intake vent or aperture, and at least one outlet nozzle or jet. Pedal assemblies are moveably mounted within elongated slots or apertures extending through the vessel. A linkage assembly operationally connects the pedals to the at least one fluid propulsion chamber. Force imparted on said pedals (such as by the legs/feet of a user) is transferred to the fluid propulsion chambers by said linkage assembly to generate positive thrust to propel the vessel.
