1. A floatable foundation structure for an offshore structure, comprising:
at least one floating body arrangement; and
at least one mass arrangement,
wherein the mass arrangement is couplable to the floating body arrangement by at least one holding rope in a coupling state,
wherein in the coupling state for coupling the floating body arrangement to the mass arrangement, a coupling section of the holding rope is arcuately guided around a wherein ends of the holding rope are each fixed to the floating body arrangement at a respective attachment point,
wherein in the coupling state, the coupling section of the holding rope is arcuately guided around the contact section of the mass arrangement such that the coupling section of the holding rope forms a loop retainer in which the contact section of the mass arrangement is retained.
