The Christchurch Bay Project is intended to provide wave force data that fill the gap between small scale laboratory experiments and the fullscale conditions. The site for the Tower provides a reasonable model of North Sea conditions except for the largest waves which are depth-limited. Experiments with the gravity foundations were carried out simultaneously with the wave force experiments. Mention is made of some important aspects of engineering design and construction. The paper then presents some early results. These include comments on analysis techniques, a brief description of some time histories and some force coefficients from a 'mean square' analysis method.
