A VESSEL FOR TRANSPORTING WIND TURBINES, METHODS OF MOVING A WIND TURBINE, AND A WIND TURBINE FOR AN OFF-SHORE WIND FARM

摘要

A wind turbine (1) has a base (5) divided into at least three ballast tanks (12). A vessel (7) has means for displacing the wind turbine between a loading space (25) and an unloading position (26). At its unloading position the vessel has winches (11) with at least three flexible lines (10) that can be connected with horizontally distanced lifting points (23) on the wind turbine base.
