  1. A Tiller is used in small boats, especially in small sailboats


  2. Lets go with Tiller, I was talking to a guy who steers Dragon Boats the other day.  Pretty sure that is what a rudder is called on Smaller boats.  I have sailed a catamaran and those things are awesome, especially when they are standing up out of the water!

  3. Depends how small the boat is. You steer a small outboard with the handle on the motor itself (I don't know what it's called, though). On sightly bigger boats, you use the tiller to move the rudder.
