I was taken by this unusual looking ship, the Saga Explorer. The topside overhanging structure are two gantry cranes with weather protection covers. The Saga web site describes it as follows.

The cranes are fitted with retractable roofs, which cover the whole working area including the outreach area which enables operation in unfavorable weather. Some vessels are also equipped with curtains on the sides that enable work possibilities in even the most adverse weather conditions.
