Stern is the back or the boat/shop. Aft is a direction toward the back of the boat. If you are at the front and head toward the stern, you are heading aft.
Rudders work by changing the direction of the water flow around the boat, which in turn changes the boat's direction. When the rudder is turned, it creates a force that pushes the stern of the boat in the opposite direction, causing the boat to turn in the desired direction.
A stern light is a white navigation light on the rear (stern) of a watercraft. It helps other vessels determine the direction the boat is headed in low visibility conditions or at night. The white light indicates the boat's position and helps prevent collisions on the water.

The stern of a boat is the rearmost portion of the boat or ship. The stern usually has a tiller or other steering device that helps the boat turn, The stern might also have the motor of the boat if the boat has an outboard motor. By tilting this motor from one side to another it helps the boat turn. The propeller in this area also makes the boat move through the water.

Ha! You made that one tough...you didn't say whether you were in the boat facing the stern, or outside the boat facing the stern. Anyway, it's easy. If you're in the boat and you're facing forward (the direction of travel), the right side of the boat is the starboard side. Think of a car driving down the highway (in the US), the passenger is on the starboard side and the driver is on the port side.
At the rear of the boat. In the rear.
