"The Rusty Rudder" is a giant boat off the coast of Fontaine. Upon paying a visit to the area, you'll run into a maid named Permingeat, who will ask you a series of questions about the old boat. Answering them correctly will merit you the opportunity to operate a cannon, which can be used to unlock a Hidden Teleport Waypoint.
The answers to Permingeat's questions can be found within "The Rusty Rudder," but I've listed them below so you don't have to run around searching for them.
How to trigger "The Rusty Rudder" Hidden Exploration Objective in Genshin Impact
Start by heading to the area circled in the image above, east of the Foggy Forest Path. You'll encounter an old boat called "The Rusty Rudder," and among the employees onboard is a maid named Permingeat, who looks a little out of place.
You'll find a large cannon beside Permingeat. Interact with the cannon to Operate it, triggering dialogue with Permingeat. She'll ask you three questions and will give you time to find the answers.

After Permingeat asks you three questions, speak to her again to answer them. Refer to the table below for all of the answers:
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| How many tables are there in The Rusty Rudder? | Three |
| How many employees do we have at The Rusty Rudder? | Three |

After answering Permingeat's questions correctly, interact with the cannon again to operate it.

Once done, you can claim an Exquisite Chest and unlock a Hidden Teleport Waypoint.
