The invention relates to a system comprising: a foundation element that has a universal joint, wherein the universal joint has a first universal joint element connected to the foundation element for conjoint rotation and a second universal joint element which is rotatable about the longitudinal axis of the first universal joint element by carrying out a rotation about its own longitudinal axis; a floating wind turbine; and a mooring line. One end of mooring line is connected to the foundation element a first connector connected to the second universal joint element for conjoint rotation and the other end of which is connected to the floating wind turbine a second connector rotatably mounted on the floating wind turbine. The system also includes a controller which, on the basis of the rotational position of the floating wind turbine about the foundation element, brings about the adoption of a rotational position of the second connector rotatably mounted on the floating wind turbine; wherein the rotational position of the second connector rotatably mounted on the floating wind turbine corresponds to the rotational position of the second universal joint element about its own longitudinal axis, which rotational position geometrically corresponds to the rotational position of the floating wind turbine about the foundation element.
