- a self-floating, exchangeable well unit (2), where the well unit comprises a ballast system for raising and lowering the propulsion unit in the water,
- a propulsion unit (3), where the propulsion unit comprises propulsion means (4), steering and positioning means, a dock (5) for the well unit, positioning and attachment means for positioning and securing the well unit (2) in the dock (5).
A system for a well boat- and service vessel (1) for transporting or storing fish or other aquatic organisms, characterized in that the well boat- and service vessel (1) comprises:
- a plurality of self-floating, exchangeable well units,
- a propulsion unit (3), where the propulsion unit comprises propulsion means (4), steering and positioning means, a dock (5) for at least one of the well units, positioning and attachment means for positioning and securing at least one of the well units in the dock (5).
A method for the use of a well boat- and service vessel (1) for transporting or storing fish or other aquatic organisms, where the well boat- and service vessel comprises a self-floating, exchangeable well unit (2) and a propulsion unit (3), where the propulsion unit comprises propulsion means (4), steering and positioning means, a dock (5) for the well unit, positioning and attachment means for positioning and securing the well unit (2) in the dock (5), and a ballast system for raising and lowering the propulsion unit in the water, characterized by the steps:
- maneuvering the propulsion unit (3) to the well unit (2),
- lowering the propulsion unit (3) down into the water by means of the ballast system so that the propulsion unit (3) is able to drive in under the well unit 2),
- positioning and attaching the well unit (2) in the dock (5) on the propulsion unit (3), wherein this operation comprises the act of raising the propulsion unit (3),
- transporting the well unit (2) with the aid of the propulsion means (4) on the propulsion unit to a destination.
