Abstract

The invention relates to a watercraft including a platform for docking with a wind turbine. The platform includes a part of the platform which is curved, such that there is a gap between the part of the platform and a ladder of the wind turbine when the watercraft is docked with the wind turbine. The platform can also be damped by a buffer to reduce the impulse of a collision with the wind turbine, and can also include a fender at the periphery of the part of the platform. The watercraft can also include a bow/stern thruster to realign the watercraft with the wind turbine.
