That's unfortunate that it doesn't turn sharper, but nice to know the sound is reduced.

I know having one prop forward and the other in reverse affects your speed, so I wonder if you can go into reverse faster by having one prop forward at 1/2 and the other in reverse at 1/3 and turn off the forward prop to switch into reverse faster. If this is possible, you could flip the rudder 180 degrees when you reach 0 knots and make a sharper turn that way.

Maybe a script could be made from this for quick starboard and port turns.
