Ship driving like an arrowhead on the stormy seas

You boys remember the time when Ronnie was pushing towards the 600-ship Navy? Those were the days. They don't make ships like this anymore. Coanda helps, of course: a streamlined strut rigidly connected at a top end to said rotatable barrel and rigidly connected at a bottom end to said pod, wherein said streamlined strut includes port and starboard ejection ports and a circulation control valve for preferentially ejecting water through said ejection ports to provide steering control by way of circulation control through the Coanda effect.
