Change to a smaller prop &/or open the aperture

It's the tip clearance to the hull aperture thats causing all the 'prop walk' ... either open the aperture &/or get a smaller dia prop.

Best is to use the prop walk and preplan every move at a 45 degree angle to get moving then idle down and 'glide' when you want to go 'straight'.
Spring line is your friend.
