After the S current has been running for 2 hours, an eddy forms between Mjovanes and Seggjatangsbue. This eddy runs NW into Gotuvik, along the S shore, and SE along the N shore to Gotenaes. It then joins the main current. A portion of this eddy, named Haealejts, turns around Gotenaes toward Lorvik. At the same time, a considerable eddy is formed between the village of Syd hradalar and Galvur, the S extremity of Kallsoy. After the S cur rent has been running for 3 hours, another considerable eddy forms between the NW extremity of Kunoy and Havnartangi (Havnetange) (62°20'N., 6°42'W.), 2 miles SSW.
