Basic Rules;

  1. No Mods that add parts.
  2. Stick to the briefs, if unable to try and follow the spirit of each category.

For whatever reason the propellors don't seem to generate thrust in the water.  If you can get them to work, fantastic! - but it might be a struggle.

The BG Props themselves don't generate any thrust under water but the stock aero parts do, so all you need to do is angle said aero devices at the correct angle.
