A dual-point absorber includes a first buoy, a second buoy, and a power take-off. The first buoy of the dual-point absorber is connected to a linkage. The second buoy of the dual-point absorber is capable of a movement relative to the first buoy. The power take-off is coupled to the first buoy and the second buoy. The linkage can be used to reduce a heave movement of the first buoy that is caused by waves.
