Or do it like Sabre on their 34… REALLY offset
shaft, but you can just about parrallel park that
boat!!

This is common. At full throttle, it takes two
hands to hold the wheel. Pearson offset the
propeller shaft to starboard to allow the shaft to
be removed without having to cutoff the rudder skeg.
When combined with the left-hand turn of the shaft,
this makes the boat turn to starboard when under
power. IMHO, Pearson should have offset the
propeller to port instead to compensate for the prop
rotation rather than enforce it.
