Subs are boats (for some reason known only to those who like to get into bar arguments frequently about boats and ships).

You might have to look at the diesel boats. Some (or all) of those might be twin screw.

The Nautilus was a Twin Screw boat when they stopped using two screws I can not say, but all of the current nuke boats are single screw.
