🔍 Key Concepts

• Parts of a rudder system on traditional shaft-steered vessels • The difference between post, stock, and frame in steering gear terminology • How the rudder is actually turned from the steering gear (yoke/quadrant/tiller connection)

💭 Think About

• Which part of the steering system is the vertical piece that actually turns and has the rudder blade attached at the bottom? • Which term is used for the member that carries the rudder and connects directly to the steering gear (yoke, quadrant, or tiller) at the top? • Look at each choice and ask: is this a vertical rotating shaft, a supporting structure, or an aft structural post of the hull?

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm which term is defined as the vertical rotating member of the rudder system • Eliminate the option that refers to the aftmost structural post of the hull, not part of the rotating rudder shaft • Make sure the option you choose is the one that connects both to the rudder at the bottom and to the yoke/quadrant/tiller at the top
