Aids to Navigation There are basically four different types of buoys we might encounter in US waters: Red, green, red and green horizontally striped, and red and white vertically striped. We will talk about special buoys further below. Each one may or may not have a light. The light color will be green, red, or white. Lights are often used where greater caution must be exercised such as a bend or narrowing of a channel. Also, especially in areas where fog may exist, some buoys make sounds such as a whistle, bell, or gong. Green and red buoys.

With only a small hole for wiring and three (3) screws for attachment, Attwood’s surface mount design makes installation quick and ncomplicated. This new LED Docking Light allows for fewer hull cuts and minimal intrusion while producing results that are reliable and attractive.
