The pilot house is a little cabin on top of the boat near the front. Some boats had a large wooden wheel that had ropes attached to the rudder at the back. So when the pilot turned the wheel, it turned the rudders.
The Delta Queen used to have a wheel, but after the ropes snapped one time and the boat had a narrow miss with a bridge, they installed more modern equipment. They now use metal handles, which they move left and right.
