A boat's steering wheel connects to the rudder, allowing the captain or helmsman to change the vessel's direction. Some modern ships don't have a wheel, instead opting for a toggle that changes the rudder direction through remote control. The steering wheel on a boat is the ship's wheel or the boat's wheel. It is a part of the helm's steering mechanics, that changes the rudder's direction to vary the vessel's course. In recent times, it is well-known as the helm rather than the steering wheel. The steering wheel or helm will be much smaller than you might think, with some modern boats having simple toggle switches.
