Abstract
An improved hose structure is provided for passing fluid across a universal joint, that permits a transfer structure to pivot about two horizontal axes with respect to a vessel or the like at the sea surface. A hose or other flexible conduit has a lower end connected to a pipe on the transfer structure and an upper end connected to a pipe on the vessel which can move up and down and which is biased upwardly. When the transfer structure tilts, to raise or lower the lower end of the hose, the upper end can also rise or fall to minimize bending of the hose, so that a substantially straight hose can be used.
