If you drive a car and you sail a ship what do you do with a submarine?

A submarine is said to sail, either on the surface or submerged.

A submarine is driven, but similar to the way a plane is flown. It takes a team of men to drive the sub. You have a helmsman, planesman, and Chief of the watch controlling depth, direction, and angle of the boat. In the engineering department, you have the reactor plant operator controlling steam production, and a propulsion operator that controls the amount of steam going into the steam turbines that control speed. There are more people involved in less direct jobs than this but this will give you a rundown.

To give you an idea of what it's like: imagine 5 guys that are only 6 inches tall trying to drive a car. You have one on the gas, one on the brake, two on the steering wheel, and another yelling out at everyone to go, stop, or turn.
