Abstract

A craft, intended to sail on the surface and to travel under the surface of a liquid medium, comprises a liquid-ejection propulsion means and a ballast means which uses the liquid for the purpose of diving under the surface, these means being contained in a hull. The craft comprises at least one hydrogen engine (21a or 21b) whose exhaust is connected to the propulsion and ballast means.
