Abstract (en)

The invention concerns a vessel comprising a system for transferring persons or goods from the vessel while subjected to waves and/or swell towards a substantially stationary destination, wherein the system comprises a platform (2) for supporting the persons or goods during transfer, and platform actuators (3)connecting the platform to the vessel and adapted for moving the platform relative to the vessel in such a manner that the platform is maintained spatially in a substantially stationary position. In accordance with the invention the system further comprises at least one compensation mass (5) for at least partially compensating motions of the vessel caused by the activation of the platform actuators (3), wherein a compensation actuator (7)couples the at least one compensation mass to the vessel for a movement relative thereto.
