Disclosed herein is a turret mooring system for a tidal turbine assembly 150, which increases the ratio of the torque exerted by the turret 100 relative to frictional forces between the turret 100 and the assembly 150 moored to the turret 100. In some examples, the frictional forces are reduced by the turret providing an upward force to the assembly, which also resists pitching moments. In other examples, the torque exerted by the turret 100 is increased by the use of a bifurcated mooring line 106, 108 which couples to two spaced apart attachment points 128 on a chain table 104 of the turret 100 and to a single point 114 on the water bed.
