Thats a good summary...the counter rotating unit runs in reverse...so you switch the cable to the other end of throw inside shifter unit...so appears you are in forward position while drive running in reverse. Unstacking and restacking the shifter takes some patience and grease to hold the detent balls in place (Kiekhaefer).
When taking drive off and on you shift into reverse instead of forward.
Biggest change I noticed is no more torque steer on deceleration- my boat would move about 6' (right?) when coming off throttles at speed....
