That's been my experience as well since owning a DP for 17 years. I could thread a needle in reverse with the 3 mercs I owned over the years. I back my boat into my slip and it just doesn't act the same way as a single prop. 50% of the time I have to correct what I'm doing by putting it in forward. That said, the performance and control with a DP is superior to a single prop.
