3 Logistics - Boats

How is the entity designed to move?
I am looking at basic components of a ship that can help my design to move.  This will include basic forms and engines so I know where components need to be situated.  In a real life situation, I would be working with a naval engineer from the beginning of the project  but seeing as I don't have access to one, this project will be remain rather conceptual.
