The wind at Frying Pan shoals has been west-northwesterly at an average velocity of 40 mph. The predicted set and drift of the rotary current are 323° at 0.6 knot. What current should you expect?

Correct Answer: Option A — 018° at 0.4 knot

Frying Pan Shoals current adjustments account for local meteorological conditions by applying wind-driven current corrections from current tables directly to the predicted astronomical rotary current vector components.
