I too use my rudders and twin engines. With bursts of power and use of forward and reverse (bow thruster too) the vessel can be walked sideways. We are blessed with big rudders which helps even more.

Rudder use and alternating engines is quite similar to how IPS and Zeus work, absent computer help.
