🔍 Key Concepts

• Standard rudder commands used on the bridge and how they are acknowledged • The specific meaning of "shift" versus commands like "amidships" or "steady as she goes" • What it implies when you already have rudder applied to one side

💭 Think About

• If the rudder is already at (for example) 15° right, what would "shift" logically tell the helmsman to do with angle and side? • Which option describes an action that directly changes the rudder position, not the steering system or the ship’s motion? • Which choices talk about the ship’s heading or swing, and which talk specifically about rudder angle and side?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which answers refer to rudder position/angle versus ship motion or control system • Ask yourself: does "shift" usually mean change sides or cancel the angle? • Confirm that the meaning you choose would still make sense if the rudder were already hard over to one side.
