Our C&C 29 also has the offset prop and the prop walk is pretty severe.
We're in a slip, with the dock on the port side.  

 

I've found the trick to overcoming the prop walk is to turn the wheel about
a quarter-turn to starboard when backing out.  If you do this before you put
the boat in reverse, it backs out straight.  

 

Had plenty of amusing exits before figuring this out!
