A propulsion device and its method of use, the device having a forward foil and a rearward foil adapted for alternate transverse reciprocal and alternate pivotal movement in opposed direction about parallel axes. The forward and rearward foil axes are perpendicular to the chords of the forward and rearward foils and the rearward foil is positioned to the rear of, and in a nested relationship with, the forward foil. The axes of the forward and rearward foils are positioned a distance of less than one-quarter of the chord length from the leading edge of the forward and rearward foils, respectively.
