Just out of curiousity, how many different ways can you steer a boat? Did it have a tiller? Two sticks like a bulldozer? If it’s got a wheel, it ought to be pretty ****ing obvious.

Bottom line increased optempo, and lack of training created these events. The ships are spending too much time at sea due to a lack of ships, and we are not doing enough training for the crews. Whenever budgets get cut, the first thing out the window is training. We have highly capable, advanced ships - and we're not training the crews how to use them. |

If I remember correctly you have two DMS channels, a hard wire, potentiometer in after steering and the hand wheels for each rudder unit.
