A hydrofoil ( 1 ) comprises a bottom ( 23 ) formed with two front and rear steps ( 3 and 4 ), and a strut ( 31 ) supporting a submerged hydrofoil ( 21 ) arranged between the two steps ( 3 and 4 ). The strut ( 31 ) can be switched between a storage state and a navigation state by its forward-and-backward rotation. A threshold value of dynamic lift (F) obtained by the hydrofoil ( 21 ) can be established arbitrarily, and the dynamic lift can be held to the set value by keeping the strut ( 31 ) in the navigation state correspondingly to the established threshold value of hydrofoil-dynamic-lift, thereby enabling the dynamic lift to be held at the established value during navigation. Moreover, based on draft (WL) or trim angle (TR) during the boat-berthing, a set value of hydrofoil-dynamic-lift and a set value of tilt angle of a propulsor ( 22 ) or a flap ( 22 a ) attached to the rear of hull can be accommodated.
