Default Lifetime Struggle With The Dreaded 7#11 Chord

I don't have fat fingers but try as I might, I just cannot seem to consistently play a nice sounding 7#11 chord much less make a smooth transition to it in a chord melody arrangement.

The 7#11 chord I am referring to is voiced X87887 (F7#11 in this example).

The best I've come up with is leaving out the 3rd (A in this example) which is an OK but not great solution. Works as long as the 'A' is not the melody note.

Any suggestions or workarounds are welcome!
