Default Seamanship Question #25

I'm assuming that you don't have time to deploy an emergency rudder... in
that case, you would have to create drag on one side of the boat... perhaps
anchor or short-line drogue off the bow?

If you have lost your rudder, what can you
use to steer the vessel besides it's sails.

Say for example you have a tack you have to
make, or risk running aground. What can
you do to positively insure you get the bow
through the eye of the wind?
