That’s currently docked at the key side, that belongs to the company that Mrs.Bins work for.

They assist with the loading and unloading of the wind turbines and associated equipment.

crazy ship - why is it on stilts though ? I can only think its like that for stability ?

Some great footage and the pano’s work well for this.

From their website

Four sets of triangular truss type legs each measuring 119 metres (390 feet) long are driven by a floating opposed rack and pinion jacking system

It stands on the seabed by all accounts

such a cool setup that - thanks for the info
