With all the brilliant minds in the world, why is there not a simpel and cheap solution to cross over to the turbine structure!

There is, http://www.windcatworkboats.com, this is just a "simpel" solution by using a friction band just in front of the bow of the ship. They can transfer people up to 2 meters significant wave height (and have excemptions up to 3 meters).

This is an access system that people have to step on a ladder on the transition piece. Because of Dutch law on working conditions a ladder can only be used if no other access system can be used.
Access systems as Ampelmann make access easier, but it is said that such a system is costly and the transit vessel will need a DP system for the Ampelmann to keep a steady position.
Taking in account ...
