The helm command "shift the rudder" instructs the helmsman (the person with their hand on the wheel) to give the same angle in the opposite direction. Example: If the ship's rudder is at Left 10 degrees, it will be switched to Right 10 degrees....if it is at Right 25 degrees, the helm should pring it to Left 25. A Williamson turn is a typical situation which this command will be useful. Hope this helps...
