🔍 Key Concepts

• rudder angle indicator as a device that shows rudder angle in degrees on the bridge • difference between equipment that shows position versus equipment that moves/controls the rudder • how traditional wheel/telegraph systems transmit orders versus how feedback of actual rudder position is displayed

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: which device on the list is specifically meant to DISPLAY the rudder’s angle to the helmsman or officer of the watch? • Consider which items are part of the control or follow-up system, and which item is the instrument that simply tells you where the rudder actually is right now. • On a bridge, when the conning officer says, “What’s your rudder?” which of these instruments would the helmsman look at to answer in degrees?.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option is an indicating instrument (a gauge or dial) rather than a control mechanism. • Eliminate any options that mainly describe parts of the steering control system rather than the display on the bridge. • Focus on the term that normally has a scale in degrees port and starboard and is read visually by the watch officer.
