What is the water in the bottom of the boat called?
IN larger boats, the area at the very bottom of the boat is called the "bilge", and the water there is sometimes called "bilge water". To get rid of it, sailors use bilge pumps to pump the water over the side and out of the boat. For smaller boats that don't have bilge pumps, the sailors will "bail" the water out by scooping it up with any suitable container, and dumping it overboard.
Do all newly made boats have an outboard motor?
The short answer is no. Boats are made with outboard, inboard-outboard, a hybrid using an inboard engine driving a stern mounted shaft that looks like the lower end of an outboard. Others use inboard engines, typically larger cruiser and specialty ski boats. Personal watercraft use a inboard engine powering a water jet pump. This jet drive system is also used in some boats. Most smaller boats are powered by outboards. New large outboards up to 400HP permit larger boats some over 30 ft long to be outboard powered. Most mid-size boats from 18-30 feet are powered by inboard-outboard systems to take advantage of larger automotive engines.

What is a bilge pump on a boat?
A "bilge pump" is not automatically on a boat. Every boat does however have a bilge area. It is the area in a boat's hull where water collects. This area is seriously recommended to have a "bilge pump" in it on every boat to pump the water out of this area while on the water. Bilge's have drain plugs on the back of the boat for when you take it out of the water to fully drain it.
