A floating offshore horizontal axis wind turbine structure, including an anchored part anchored to a sea bed, and a rotatable part, the structure being supported by at least a pivot buoy, the pivot buoy includes a lower body anchored to the seabed and an upper body fixed to the rotatable part structure; an electrical connection between the lower body and the upper body; and a yaw system connecting the upper body with the lower body. The yaw system includes an inner ring connected to one of the upper and lower body, and an outer ring connected to the other of the upper and lower body; wherein the inner and outer rings are configured to rotate with respect to each other around a vertical yaw axis. The yaw system allows an alignment of the rotatable part with the prevailing wind direction, by rotating about the vertical yaw axis.
