It will run steam pressure, will have three turrets ( two on bow and one on stern) and a lot of modern Rocket launchers, four prop pods, two rudders, four denny brown stablizers, and a clean, futuristic superstructure.
Please read this, Colosseum.

because...
1. it is strong
2. it is not radioactive
3. the ship is sitting in water, so theres no fuel problem (except the gas)
4. the only exhaust is the steam, which is blasted into the water, underwater, and instantly turns back into water
5. it does not have any smoke that can be spotted over the horizon
6. IT'S STEAMPUNK!!!

Umms you need fuel for the heat required in a steamplant, hence either Oil/coal=smoke

That's just so wrong. I'm going to let PotatOS say it for me. Please read up on the Rankine Cycle before you post any more.

umms its run on a fuel similar to propane, so yes, it does need to carry fuel.

Propane is highly unlikely. Kerosene or something heavier is much more likely due to storage concerns.
