Propulsion is one of the main subsystems which define the basic features of the hydrofoil as a whole. Therefore, its optimisation must be seen as related to the whole system and not only to its single items. Propulsion design factors are reviewed with the aim of identifying the critical ones, as they can interact with the basic characteristic of the craft. Selection of the propulsion plant for a new hydrofoil is described with the purpose of showing a practical example of the choice process. (Wassmann)
