ABSTRACT:
A system is described for use with a platform structure which is anchored at a fixed location and orientation in deep water, to hold a supply boat at a substantially fixed location and compass heading so that cranes or the like on the platform can reach the boat to lift off cargo, which is of the type that utilizes a pair of hawsers to tie the stern of the boat to the platform and another hawser to tie the bow of the boat to a buoy anchored far from the platform. A long underwater beam structure is utilized which lies under the boat, has an inner end pivotally connected to the platform structure, and has an outer end which anchors the buoy in position, so that the buoy does not have to be separately anchored to the sea floor.
