What is the ideal body shape/type for a great swimmer?

Is having broad shoulders and back a good or bad thing?
Should you have extra fat or be extra lean?
I wonder how much effect one's body shape/type have one's speed.
I sink like a rock. But I managed to get pretty far in the swimming world.
But yes, I think I have to work harder than most to stay on top of the water. So buoyancy helps, but it's not a requirement.
