A B S T R A C T Steering and manoeuvering system for water-born vessels with two individually turnable propulsion units arranged mutually spaced athwartships in the stern portion of the vessel, and including an actuating turning device actuable by a steering control e.g. a lever, such as to maintain the propulsing units parallel during turning in normal sailing of the vehicle ahead or astern, i.e. in the so-called normal steering mode, and an actuating drive device for setting the propulsive power and direction ahead/astern of the respective propulsion unit, said drive device being actuable by a power control . In accordance with the invention, the steering and manoeuvering system is switchable between said normal steering mode and at least one special manoeuvering mode , in which said actuating drive device is actuated for setting the two propulsion units in opposing propulsive directions ahead/astern, while said actuating turning device is actuated automati- cally, irrespective of the position of the steering control for setting the two propulsion units at symmetrical turning angles in opposite angular directions, so that the two propul- sion units achieve a force resultant directed substantially athwartships for athwartships and/or turning movement of the vessel.
