🔍 Key Concepts

• Behavior of a vessel in a following sea (waves from astern) • How the stern moving to starboard affects the vessel’s actual heading and track • Relationship between rudder direction and the way the bow moves

💭 Think About

• If the stern is pushed to starboard, which way does the bow swing relative to your original course? • To get back on the original course, do you want the bow to move left (port) or right (starboard)? • When you put on left or right rudder, which way does that make the bow turn?

✅ Before You Answer

• Be clear on what “stern to starboard” means for the bow’s direction • Think about whether changing speed alone will correct a heading error caused by yaw from a wave • Match the needed bow movement (to regain original course) with the correct rudder direction
