This marine propulsion system makes it possible to develop a propulsive thrust by a symmetrically convex oscillating body, to exploit the cynetic energy of the flow moving past the two convex sides of the oscillating body by deflecting them into a one-way jet, and thus to directly convert an oscillatory motion into a propulsive thrust in water without any intermediate mechanism. The system can be operated by powerplants housed in the hull or positioned inside the oscillating body.
