It depends on where the ship is. On the open sea, the captain or any crewman he assigns may drive the ship. While in a harbor, or a channel such as the Inter Coastal Waterway (ICW) along the east coast of the US, a pilot or harbor pilot steers the ship.
In many Navies the person who drives the ship is known as a Helmsman.
