:That works great, yes. The one thing I would add would be an arrow showing where north is, since there are plenty of people who use the cardinal directions rather than ship directions. -- [[User:Studenterhue|Studenterhue]] ([[User talk:Studenterhue|talk]]) 07:22, 21 October 2019 (GMT) | |||

*WEST, LEFT - Port (i remember this one by knowing that it has the same amount of letters than left - if i forget, i can just count the letters!) | |||
*EAST, RIGHT - Starboard (i remember this one because its the most unique sounding name, and also it has more letters than port, so it goes to the direction with more letters which is right) | |||
*SOUTH, DOWN - Aft (i remember this one by thinking of the direction your ass(aft kinda sounds like ass right) faces when you bow - points backwards!) | |||
