A structure such as a pipeline bundle is pulled into or through shallow water, for example when launching the structure, by applying a tensile pulling force to the structure through rigging that extends to the structure from a winch of a first vessel. The pulling force is at least partially reacted through a pennant line that extends from the first vessel to a second vessel and that hangs between the first and second vessels to engage the seabed soil frictionally. The vessels may also self-propel to contribute their thrust to the pulling force. The pennant line includes a clump weight such as a bundle of chains that can be repositioned easily for additional pulls by being lifted between the vessels before being lowered to the seabed at a new location.
