A system for supporting and/or tensioning a subsea tendon. The system includes a cylindrical vessel forming a chamber, there being an air control valve proximate the top end of the vessel and a water vent proximate the bottom end of the vessel. A source of high pressure air is operatively connected to the chamber whereby ballasting and deballasting of the vessel can be easily accomplished by remote operation of the air control valve. The system further includes a yoke having a clamp mounted thereon, the yoke being releasably connectable to the cylindrical vessel and operative to connect to hoisting lines such as chains.
