In vessels fitted with twin propellers, the word "both" should be added to all orders affecting both shafts, e.g. "Full ahead both", and "Slow astern both", except that the words "Stop all engines" should be used, when appropriate. When required to manoeuvre twin propellers independently, this should be indicated, i.e. "Full ahead starboard", "Half astern port", etc. Where bow thrusters are used, the following orders are used: 9. Bow thruster full / half to port / starboard. 10. Stern thruster full / half to port / starboard. 11. Bow / stern thruster stop

Standard Wheel Orders All wheel orders given should be repeated by the helmsman and the officer of the watch should ensure that they are carried out correctly and immediately.

Nothing to port/starboard Avoid allowing the vessel’s head to go to port/starboard . 9.Meet her Check the swing of the vessel´s head in a turn. 10. Steady Reduce swing as rapidly as possible. 11. Ease to five / ten Reduce amount of rudder to 5°/10°/15°/20° and hold. / fifteen / twenty 12. Steady as she goes Steer a steady course on the com heading indicated at the time of the order. The helmsman is to repeat the order and call out the com heading on receiving the order. When the vessel is steady on that heading, the helmsman is to call out: "Steady on ..." 13. Keep the buoy/ mark/ beacon/ ... on port side / starboard side. 14. Report if she does not answer the wheel. 15. Finished with wheel, no more steering. When the officer of the watch requires a course to be steered by com, the direction in which s/he wants the wheel turned should be stated followed by each numeral being said separately, including zero, for example: Order Course to be steered Port, steer one eight two 182° Starboard, steer zero eight two 082° Port, steer three zero five 305° On receipt of an order to steer, for example, 1820 , the helmsman should repeat it and bring the vessel round steadily to the course ordered. When the vessel is steady on the course ordered, the helmsman is to call out: "Steady on one eight two". The person giving the order should acknowledge the helmsman's reply. If it is desired to steer on a selected mark the helmsman should be ordered to: "Steer on ... buoy / ... mark / ... beacon". The person giving the order should acknowledge the helmsman's reply.
