Abstract (en)

[origin: CA2897733A1] A method for pulling an autonomous submersible vehicle (8) into a mother ship (2) is proposed. The method comprises the steps of letting out a floating line (4) from the mother ship (2), allowing at least part of a capturing line (10) to rise from the submersible vehicle (8) by means of a capturing buoy (12), to cause the submersible vehicle (8) to cross under the floating line (4) in such a way that the capturing line (10) with the capturing buoy (12) becomes caught on the floating line (4), and to draw the submersible vehicle (8) to the mother ship (2) by pulling in the floating line (4).
