Abstract of the Disclosure A heavy submersible objects is deployed from or retrieved to a floating vessel in rough water. The connection or release point is sufficiently far below the water surface that surface waves have little if any effect on the object. Deployment and retrieval are made to an arm which depends from the vessel and which has a variable stiffness connec- tion, ranging from free-swinging to rigid, to the vessel. Deployment and retrieval are made with the arm free-swinging from the vessel so the arm has no motion due to pitch or roll of the vessel. In retrieval, the connection is progressively stiffened to rigid after the object has been connected to the arm, and the arm is then raised with the retrieved object.
