Abstract: A monopile fastening system (1, 9, 17) for retaining one or more elongated monopile during sea transport and/or quay transport, the system comprising: —at least two supporting devices (3, 11, 18); —a supporting frame (2, 10, 23) for securing the at least two supporting devices to a surface of a vessel, barge or a sea transport unit, the at least two supporting devices having each at least one surface (6, 32) in contact with a surface (7, 33) of the supporting frame; wherein each of the at least two supporting devices comprises, at least two supporting elements (4, 5, 12, 13, 20, 24, 27), the supporting elements having each at least one surface (14, 15, 25, 26, 28, 29) in contact with each other; wherein the at least two supporting elements are connected with each other through one or more displacing means (16, 22, 30); and wherein the one or more displacing means are means for displacing the at least two supporting elements along the at least one surface in contact with each other.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a bulbous bow for a sea-going vessel, said bow comprising a load-carrying inner structure mounted at the stem of the vessel and an outer shell structure defining the hydrodynamic properties of the bulbous bow, wherein said outer shell structure is provided with a sub-structure for replaceably mounting on the inner structure. The invention further concerns a seagoing vessel comprising such bulbous bow as well as a method of producing a bulbous bow and a method of mounting or replacing a bulbous bow.
