I'm just waking up and kinda fuzzy right now, but why is this? Waves and so forth, tend to slow you down on the surface and lower your fuel economy. I would rather just use the batteries underwater if I'm after fuel economy.
However, for emergencies it would be nice to have the option to use them on the surface.
