Have you ever tried to turn a boat using just its engines?, its rather slow.

Because the props are so close to gether and the boat is so long thers a lot of wasted power there, I would be slow and would remain slow (as far as i know).

It would be hard to do submerged on in a tight space.

I dont know a lot but i think thats correct
