The Cop (who also dressed as a Naval officer) and lead singer is Victor Willis.

From the Village People Wiki page, the original "macho types who must dance and have a moustache" were:

Felipe Rose: the Indian
Alex Briley: the Soldier
Mark Mussler: the Carpenter
Dave Forrest: the Cowboy
Glenn Hughes: the Leatherman

Mark Mussler was replaced by David Hodo as the Carpenter
Dave Forrest was replaced by Randy Jones as the Cowboy

The ship in this video...

was played by a real ship, and the sailors you see very brief glimpses of were her crew.
