Using the jib's back-sail and the rudder, I turned the bow toward the direction I wanted to go while backing up.

Literal

Jib [genitive-の] back-sail [and-と] rudder [object-を] use, while-backing boat-bow [object-を] want-to-proceed direction [to-に] turned.

A sailing-maneuver sentence. ジブ (jib), ラダー (rudder), and the verb バックする ('to back up,' a loanword verb) are all nautical/vehicular vocabulary. 裏帆 ('back-sail,' 'reversed sail') is 裏 (reverse, back) + 帆 (sail) — a sailing technique where the jib is deliberately set against the wind for maneuvering. 船首 ('bow' of a ship) = 船 + 首 (head/front). ~ながら ('while X-ing,' simultaneous action) attached to バックする gives 'while backing up.' 進みたい方向 ('direction [I] want to go') is a relative clause with the desiderative ~たい.
