🔍 Key Concepts

• Steerage way and how rudders work • Difference between headway and sternway • Effect of water flow over the rudder on steering control

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: when does the rudder actually have enough water flowing past it to turn the vessel effectively? • Consider whether a stopped vessel with no way on can respond to rudder commands. • Think about whether forward motion or backward motion generally gives you more predictable steering response on most vessels.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which condition provides continuous water flow over the rudder. • Check which options describe the vessel having no way on versus moving through the water. • Confirm under which motion (if any) you normally achieve steerage way in standard ship handling discussions.
