A vessel for installation of a pile for supporting a wind turbine includes a hull, a lifting device, and a pile gripper. The lifting device includes a base, an elongate, upright superstructure, and a lifting assembly and the pile gripper includes a gripper base and a gripper device. The pile engagement device and the gripper device are, by respective movabilities thereof in an X-Y plane relative to the vessel, whilst both engaging a pile, and whilst supporting the pile, simultaneously movable relative to the hull from an inboard retaining position in which the pile engagement device is in the upper position and the pile is above the hull, to an outboard installation position of the pile in which the pile is outside the contour of the vessel.
