A hull structure for a semi-submersible wind power turbine platform. The hull structure includes first, second and third buoyant stabilizing columns extending in a substantially vertical direction; and first and second elongated submersible buoyant pontoon structures extending in a substantially horizontal direction. The the hull structure generally has a V-shape in the horizontal plane with the first and second pontoon structures forming legs in the V-shape and with the second column located where the legs meet. The second column has a cross sectional area at its intended operational waterline that is larger than the cross sectional area of each of the first and third columns at their corresponding intended operational waterlines so that the second column exhibits an operational waterplane area that is larger than the operational waterplane area of each of the first and third columns when the hull structure is set in the operational state.
