The hub is positioned on the deck in such a way that the at least one blade is at least partially located above the sea surface and that the center axis of the hub is tilted in relation to the deck so as to increase the distance between the at least one blade and the sea surface. Furthermore, a method for transporting a wind turbine rotor at sea on a vessel having a deck is also provided.
