Same in Italy. Both sea and lakes.

I recall a hydrofoil on Lake Garda -- obviously lots of power required -- it was much louder than the normal ferries on that lake.

Some hydrofoil ships are powered by turbines, which produce a high-pitch whine, much more noticeable at a distance than the low-frequency rumbling of a diesel.
