A vessel has a heave motion compensated carrier to support an object that is to be offloaded by an offloading device of another vessel or offshore structure. The carrier is supported on the hull of the vessel by a heave motion compensating support system. The system includes a hydraulic cylinder, a hydraulic-power unit connected to the rod-side chamber, a medium separator having a hydraulic-side chamber connected to the piston-side chamber of the hydraulic cylinder, and a bank of pressurized gas tanks. The bank includes a high-pressure tank and low-pressure tanks each selectively connectable via a respective gas tank valve to the gas-side chamber of the medium-separator.
