It appears you have a class you have named "Ship" and in your code you are trying to tell this class to act like a movieclip. WHat you probably really want to be doing is something more like...

var ship:Ship = new Ship();

addChild(ship);

function mouse1(e:MouseEvent):void {

ship.gotoAndStop(2);

}
