Lions, Temam, and Wang in [“Problème à frontière libre pour les modèles couplés de l'océan et de l'atmosphère,” Acad. Sci., Paris, C. R. 318(12), 1165–1171 (1994)] introduced a free surface model for the primitive equations of the ocean. In this paper, we establish the local well-posedness of the model with analytic initial data.
