There is provided systems and methods for stabilising a vessel against a stationary structure. Embodiments of the system include a sensor system, a processor, and a vessel control system. The processor is configured to determine a change in the position and/or motion of the waterborne vessel relative to the stationary structure based on sensor data, and to determine a minimum corrective force required to oppose the change. The minimum corrective force is then delivered by the vessel control system operable to stabilise the waterborne vessel relative to the stationary structure.
