Lateral Markers
Lateral markers are oriented from the perspective
of being entered from seaward (the boater is going
toward the port). This means that red buoys are
passed on the starboard (right) side of the vessel
when proceeding from open water into port, and
green buoys to the port (left) side.
The right side (starboard) of the channel is marked
with RED, even-numbered buoys. The left side
(port) of the channel is marked with GREEN,
odd-numbered buoys.
Day markers are colored and numbered the same
as buoys. RED, triangular day markers with even
numbers mark the starboard side of the channel.
GREEN, square day markers with odd numbers
mark the port side of the channel.
Fairways and mid-channels may be marked with
safe water marks or buoys. These marks indicate
safe water all around. Safe water marks are red
and white striped and are round or have a red
spherical topmark.
