My son did a science fair experiment in middle school on MHD propulsion using varying amounts of salinity. He ended up going to the Intel ISEF competition in 2010 with it. It was really a lot of fun and exciting to see this principle in action. The most astounding part was the incredible amount of corrosion on the electrodes in a very short period of time. It is a very interesting concept with the limitations as outlined in the video still needing to be worked out.

The existing FinX outboard looks interesting, especially if they can come up with a membrane material that is more resistant to seawater. The wavy fins I suspect will have too many moving parts exposed to the water. It MIGHT be good for fresh water use. As far as an MHD drive, The Plasma Channel and a few others have already built small units, and the USN has experimented with them on a larger scale. As you stated, a HUGE power requirement as well as corrosion issues were/are major drawbacks. As is a very limited amount of thrust. The corrosion problem MIGHT be able to be fixed, or at least mitigated, if literally everything in contact with the water is coated. Possibly with a thin layer of ceramic.

we already use fin type systems on kayaks for shallows, maybe we should scale that up instead using buoyancy neutral materials to reduce the energy needed to move the fins, or maybe use moving air and water to make them move by controlling buoyancy to create force, either way this would be way quieter than a propeller with far less depth or energy restrictions if mastered

Magneto drive.. From front of the boat to the back.. Inside hydrogen will be made and that will fight to rise inside the tube. Longer tube = Catch more hydrogen. Less than in salt water but extra boost if using a mini-cold steam boiler system. A small container for hydrogen and a tiny tiny fire in a tube run through water under vacuum. Cold steam vacuum boilers can throw excess turbine energy to send condenser water back to boiler + maintain vacuum once going. If good enough? Produce too much fuel like the sun. It will safely rise.. *Points at the Heliosphere around the sun* Hahaha.. That's why we have ultrasonic microphones on probes while lying to claim no sound in space. Gas medium..

This kind of reminds me a an antigravitational engine I wish to one day R&D which has a success percentage of at least 60% or more. At the very least it would be able to hold slightly more than it's own weight meaning it could float around under it's own weight but actual propulsion would need to be figured out. I do have a much more reliable anti-gravitational idea which could work allot better meaning it should be able to hold more than 100 times it's own weight but I'm not so sure what effects it could have on the environment but theoretically it could possibly leave behind some sort of electro magnetic trail which could interfere with other electronics like cell phones or it could do even far worse damage to the environment or perhaps it wouldn't do any damage but it's just the way it would be designed to work which concerns me. As an engineer I love to build stuff but mankind has a bad history of allowing inventions to have negative effects on the environments we live in hence just because we may build technologies to make our lives easier doesn't mean it's worth the negative impacts on our environments. The less effective anti gravity engine would be allot safer/no real impact on the environment. As far as how long it would be able to stay in the air I could say more than 10 minutes for a prototype but with normal improvements over time I'm sure hours could be eventually reached. Propulsion is still something to be figured out otherwise there would only be a floating engine not moving very fast but at the very least it would be a great start. When it comes to technological advances virtually anything is possible with the right amount of insight and ingenuity.
