I spent a lot of time on a Pearson 26 with a 9.9 Johnson. The motor was great in forward.....was just a noise maker in reverse. It had a massive rudder, but was barely controllable in reverse. I always attributed it to the design of the hull to be super efficient in forward, with no regard to reverse.
