  • 1

    In 1979, a body called ______ was formed to unify the World's buoyage system.

    International Association of Lighthouse Authorities (IALA)

  • 2

    The areas that use the 'B' system, are

    North and South America, Japan, Korea and the Philippines.

  • 3

    The IALA systems are made up of five types of buoys

    lateral cardinal, safe water, isolated danger, emergency wrecking bouy and special water mark buoy.

  • 4

    is a fixed aid to navigation that displays a light of different colours and/or rhythms over designated arcs. The colour of the light provides directional information to the mariner.

    General Direction

  • 39

    Taken by the mariner conventional direction of buoyage means the approaching a harbour, river, estuary or other waterway from seaward. in the case of Inland Waters, the conventional direction of buoyage is going upstream.

    General direction

  • 40

    All marks within the IALA system are distinguished by:

    ➤ Shape ➤ Colour ➤ Topmark > Light

  • 41

    defines the borders of channels and indicates the direction

    Lateral Buoys and Marks

  • 42

    IALA "A", red buoys mark the_____ side of the channel

    port

  • 43

    Under IALA "B", red buoys mark the ______side of the channel

    starboard

  • 44

    under IALA "B", green buoys mark the _____ side of the channel when sailing towards land.

    port

  • 45

    Red buoys have ___ numbers

  • 46

    Green buoys have ______ numbers

    Lateral Marks Region A Preferred channel to port

    green, red, green horizontal stripes

  • 53

    These markers are placed at the split of the channels to indicate that the channels are split and identifies which is the channel to use.

  • 54

    note

  • 55

    indicate the safe side of a danger with an approximate bearing

    The four cardinal buoys

  • 56

    When a new obstacle which is not yet shown on charts needs to be marked, two cardinal buoys - for instance a South buoy and an East buoy - will be used to indicate this "uncharted" danger. The cardinal system is identical in both the IALA A and IALA B buoyage systems.

    are used to denote mariners' areas with special features. They do not play any major role in facilitating mariners in safe navigation. They only point out areas of certain interests to mariners. The nature of such areas can be found by consulting the charts or Sailing Directions.

    General Direction

  • 39

    Taken by the mariner conventional direction of buoyage means the approaching a harbour, river, estuary or other waterway from seaward. in the case of Inland Waters, the conventional direction of buoyage is going upstream.

    The four cardinal buoys

  • 56

    When a new obstacle which is not yet shown on charts needs to be marked, two cardinal buoys - for instance a South buoy and an East buoy - will be used to indicate this "uncharted" danger. The cardinal system is identical in both the IALA A and IALA B buoyage systems.

    The emergency wreck marking buoy will remain in position until:

    the wreck is well known and has been promulgated in nautical publications. the wreck has been fully surveyed and exact details such as position and least depth above the wreck are known. a permanent form of marking of the wreck has been carried out

    > pillar or spar buoy, coloured in equal number and dimensions of blue and yellow vertical stripes (minimum of 4 stripes and maximum of 8 stripes) >fitted with an alternating blue and yellow flashing light if multiple buoys are deployed then the lights will be synchronized. > a racon Morse Code "D" top mark, if fitted, is a standing/upright yellow cross

Meteorological stations utilise this data to provide weather forecasts and warnings crucial for navigators, the fishing industry, recreational boating, and drilling activities.
