Hybrid propulsion system for boats and ships

A hybrid engine for vessels comprising:

• a water vessel with a hybrid propulsion and an electrical energy generating unit,
• a diesel engine with a propeller shaft and a propeller for propelling the vessel,
• wherein the electrical energy generating unit includes an electrical generator for generating electricity from the rotation of the propeller shaft and is coupled to batteries for storing the generated electricity,
• a plurality of electrical water turbines with turbine blades are housed in the intake of a water pipe, within the vessel's hull, and chambers are arranged within the vessel's hull, the water pipes and chambers are being interconnected,
• wherein the turbine blades operate in a drive mode where they are driven by electrical energy to propel the vessel and a generation mode where the flow of water into the water pipes and chambers rotates the turbine blades to generate electricity,
• wherein the pipe narrows at the end to generate extra water pressure, providing the vessel with extra thrust,
• a plurality of external water turbines, the blades of which are mounted in a housing positioned on the outside of the vessel's hull, and each of the housing having a water inlet and a water outlet,
• wherein the external water turbines are operated in a drive mode where the turbine blades are driven by electrical energy to act as thrusters in combination with the turbine housings to force water from the outlets and a generation mode where the turbine blades are rotated by the flow of water through the housings to generate electricity, and
• a plurality of port hole windows having solar panels housed into the casing of the port hole windows, wherein the solar panels are connected to the electric batteries to store the generated electricity, and
• wherein the casing of the port hole windows includes a latch with lever arms to adjust the position of the port hole windows towards the sun to create electricity to charge the electric batteries.
