Basic, making a few hydrofoil S-boats and use them in missions where there are a lot of enemy naval mines.
Problem is if that list is accurate they have some operational disadvantages as well as the mine advantage. They can lay mines quite well (although they be rather noticeable or slow while doing so), but they're not going to make good torpedo boats.
Leaving aside the general issue of making a few unusual and resource intensive X in case specific instance Xn occurs is kind of an ongoing issue within a resource strapped German military production.
or put it this way if I can have 25 more E-boats that can be effective in a wider range of situations and I already have the production line and support in place, vs 10 Hydrofoils that specialise but excel in a much narrower range of situations, and I'll have to set up new production infrastructure to get them I'll take the e-boats
