A ship 10 configured to obtain propelling force by driving a main propeller 11 with a main engine 12 is provided with an additional propeller 20 and a driving unit therefore. The additional propeller 20 is disposed at a ship bottom or at a rising section of the ship bottom, in a position different from the main propeller 11. Further, the output of the driving unit of the additional propeller 20 is 25% or less than the output of the driving unit of the main engine, and the operating condition can be selectable between regular operating condition in which propelling force is obtained by driving the main propeller 11 and die other operating condition in that propelling force is obtained by driving the additional propeller 20.
