FWMS Marking System
The middle of the channel is marked with RED and WHITE
vertically striped buoys; pass close to these buoys.
Spherical Safe Water Marker
Obstructions, channel junctions, etc. are marked with RED and
GREEN horizontally striped buoys.
A RED band at the top means the preferred channel is to the left
of the buoy; a GREEN top band means the preferred channel is to
the right of the buoy.
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.
