A method of assembling a floating wind turbine platform includes forming a base assembly of the floating wind turbine platform in a cofferdam or a graving dock built in water having a first depth, then flooding the cofferdam or graving dock and floating the assembled base assembly to an assembly area in water having a second depth. A center column and a plurality of outer columns are then either assembled or formed on the base assembly. A tower is either assembled or formed on the center column. The wind turbine is then assembled on the tower, thereby defining the floating wind turbine platform.
