I'm sure those experts didn't have to think on the spot what to do. They were 30 seconds away from it. If the rudder was bigger, she may have cleared. Yes, if she was going faster, she would have turned quicker. As Daniel said, they were trying to avoid impact. If you look at Lord on the Californian that night. He reversed the engines to avoid hitting the ice field. Of course they weren't going 22 knots.
