The pipelaying path (P) includes an upstream portion that is substantially horizontal and at least 10 m above the centre of rolling (R) of the vessel and, towards a stern end of the vessel hull, a downstream portion that is downwardly inclined and, in use, enters the water at a location inboard of the stern end of the vessel hull (1).
