The invention relates to a marine structure comprising a foundation system with three or more suction buckets. The suction buckets are designed to be installed in the seafloor to operate as a foundation or part of it to support an offshore structure resting onto the seafloor. The suction buckets support a connector body and the connector body is designed to support a payload. The invention also relates to a method of installing a suction bucket. During the method, the suction bucket bottom penetrates the seafloor and fluid is removed from the suction space such that penetration proceeds by suction.
