Abstract
The invention relates to a method of laying and connecting cable between a first structure and a second structure. The first and second structures may be turbine towers or other structures positioned in a body of water. The method includes the step of connecting a second end laying mechanism on the second structure for engagement with a second end portion of the cable. The second end portion of the cable is then engaged with the second end laying mechanism to form a catenary of cable at one side of the second end laying mechanism between the first and second structures, and a tail section at the other side of the second structure. The height of the second end laying mechanism is then adjusted to allow connection of the second end of the cable to the second structure. Second end laying and connecting apparatus for facilitating the laying and connecting of cable between first and second structures is also provided.
