A system and method to be used on a ship moored offshore to hoist submarine hoses from the floor of the ocean to the deck of the vessel. The system and method employs utilization of two cables or falls, the first of which is first attached to a buoy connected to the submarine hose by a chain and then raised as high as possible. The second fall is then attached as low as possible to the chain and it too is hoisted as high as possible within the limits of the boom used. The buoy on the first fall is then lowered to the deck of the vessel and the first fall is then attached low on the chain and hoisted as high as possible. By alternately attaching the first and second falls as low as possible to the chain and hoisting them as high as possible the hose attached to the bottom of the chain is eventually brought to the surface and onto the deck of the vessel.
