A person is transferred from an object (1) floating in a sea to a stationary object (3). The stationary object (3) comprises a support structure (8) for supporting the person. The support structure (8) can be moved between a first level and a second level. The support structure (8) is biased in a bias direction towards its second level. The object (1) floating in the sea is connected to the support structure (8) by means of a connecting member (6) when the support structure (8) is situated at its second level. The length of the connecting member (6) is adjusted by operating a driving unit (5) for moving the support structure (8) from its second level to its first level, opposite to the bias direction. Then, the length of the connecting member (6) is fixed for fixing the support structure (8) relative to the object (1) floating in the sea. As a result, the support structure (8) is moving up and down in unison with the object (1) floating in the sea. Then, the person is transferred from the object (1) floating in the sea to the support structure (8). With the support structure (8) carrying the person, the length of the connecting member (6) is adjusted by operating the driving unit (5) for moving the support structure (8) back from its first level to its second level. |
