Abstract

A vessel (10) for underwater towing of heavy loads (12) is described, comprising a moon pool (42) connected with a suspension (14) for the load (12), where a lower sheave block (36) is suspended in a lifting wire (26) and is arranged to be fastened to the suspension (14) down in the water. Said moon pool (42) is equipped with a frame (28), where said frame (28) comprises several sheave blocks arranged to regulate and guide the lifting wire (26) for the load (12), and a loop (26a) of the lifting wire (26) runs down and around the lower sheave block (36), where the loop (26a) extends from a sheave block (34) in one side of the frame (28) and to a point (38;46) in another side of the frame (28). Furthermore, a method is described for assembling and underwater towing of heavy loads by the use of a frame as described.
