Abstract
A Cargo Torpedo comprises a floating semi-submerged vessel attached to a prime mover vessel by a stud installed in the center of the stern of a cargo vessel to match into an opening in the center into the bow of a prime mover vessel; the opening consists of a bushing to rotate with the motion of the cargo torpedo introduced by a plurality of mobile fins installed around the outer circumference of the cargo vessel whereby remote-controlled fins put in different angle positions synchronized in motion so the pitch of the fins will determine rotation or when put in neutral position stabilize the cargo torpedo, therefore, rotation of the cargo torpedo is transferred through the stud to a bushing of the prime mover vessel, whereby the bushing penetrates into the interior of the prime mover vessel to activate one or a series of generators or alternators to produce electricity needed to assist propulsion of the prime mover vessel.
