Abstract
    Observations have been made of the surface currents off the Northumberland coast over a period of 12 months, using a free-floating buoy. A mean vector current was found, setting 114° at o·i knot. Currents flowed into the quadrant to the right of downwind except when this would have directed them ashore. A relationship is established between wind speed and current speed.
