Good morning started Eve last week and I'm doing ok but I just have a few general questions, first if I have a ship at one station and want to bring it to the station where I have all my other ships is there a way to do that? My other question is the pilot info on the bottom is there a way to re-position that? Is it possible to rename our ships? That's all for now, just finished the Industry agent now working on the Exploration agent.

Right click the ship in the other station; click set destination; fly to said station in your pod; collect new ship. - assuming the route in the top left shows a row of green and yellow systems on the route that is. Green and yellow systems are hi sec. If the squares are orange or red, then the ship you bought was in a low sec or nul sec system, and you may want to consider if it's worth the risk to go get it.

Pirate players frequently list 'bait priced' items and ships in low sec, and camp the station to farm kills.

To rename your ship just right click the ship > Rename.

You have 3 ways to move a ship:
1: Fly there in your pod or a shuttle and fly it back.
2: If you have multiple ships, get an industrial cargo ship and haul all the ships in less trips.
3: (Less common) You can setup a courier contract and pay another player a decent amount of money to move it for you.

Check your personal assets at the left side of your screen. Its one of those buttons at the left screen tab.There yYou can see everything you have in the game and where they are. Simply click your mouse in the station you want to go and choose select destination and all you have to do is undock and follow the "yellow brick road" on right side of your screen.

For what it is worth, the Bowhead was designed to move assembled ships.

Considering he started last week, I doubt he can fly a bowhead, nor do I think it would be worth the trouble for him to pay a bowhead pilot to move a few ships for him.
