A coupling system for connecting a side of a first vessel hull with a side of a second vessel hull, wherein between the two sides there is an imaginary, substantially vertical plane in which extend a horizontal Y axis and a vertical Z axis of an imaginary orthogonal X,Y,Z coordinate system, wherein the coupling system comprises: a first coupling assembly connected with the first vessel hull with at least one fender, a second coupling assembly connected with the second vessel hull with at least one fender guide, a first connecting assembly, a second connecting assembly capable of being brought into a connected condition with the first connecting assembly, wherein the fender guides and the fenders are arranged for positioning the first and the second coupling assembly with respect to each other at least in a direction parallel to the Y axis, and wherein the first and the second connecting assembly in the connected condition allow substantially no mutual displacement in a direction parallel to the X axis.
