Rudder
A rudder — what steers the vessel — often touches a pleasant journey to foreign lands and new friendships, with disappointment and sickness if broken. The dream may ask where your means of steering your own course is in hand, and whether the thing that lets you set direction is sound or snapped, leaving you adrift.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for rudder, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To dream of a rudder, you will soom{sic} make a pleasant journey to foreign lands, and new friendships will be formed.
A broken rudder, augurs disappointment and sickness.
Fontaine, 1862
To dream of a broken rudder in a boat or vessel in which you are sailing, foretells that one of the persons who you imagine are in the boat, will be drowned, or come to a sudden death.
