The Buoys of Major Floating Aids

Description

Buoys, lightships and Large Automatic Navigational Buoys (LANBYs) have been located in areas where water levels are too deep or lighthouses would be too expensive or impractical to construct. These floating objects are anchored to the seabed. Their distinctive shapes and colors indicate their purpose and how to navigate around them. They may have lights attached, and may have a sound making device such as a gong, bell or horn. This data has been downloaded from MIDA hosted by the CMRC in UCC.
