ABSTRACT:
A device designed to visually display water current direction in a body of water. The Water Current Direction Indicator consists of a rigid Indicating Pennant (10) and a Rudder (20) fixed, in the same plane, to a Shaft (30) which is allowed to freely rotate about it's longitudinal axes. Water pressure acting on the submerged Rudder (20) causes a rotation of Shaft (30) and thus causes the Pennant (10) to rotate and align itself with the direction of the water current.
