"Cardinal Marks" is the latest video in the "Buoyage in Depth" series.
Cardinal marks consist of the following main buoys:

What a fantastic channel. Many thanks!
great video, the author speaks very slowly and explains it so simply.
In Poland, there is a popular memorisation technique for cardinal marks:
Pines in the north, palms in the south, fat woman in the east, slim women in the west.
This references the shapes made by the topmark cones.
(Though the word used for woman is kind of pejorative.)
Seriously useful and underrated. Well done.
Never noticed that the triangles also point to the black bits. Massive help, cheers!!
But why does it matter if they point to the black bits? I don't understand. If you already know which one it is based on the arrows on top what is the significanse of the colors?
Thanks for these easy to understand tutorials so great!
Thanks, I reviewed this before testing for 3rd/2nd Mate/OICNW and again for my 1600t Master OC, it really helps a ton. Great tip on thinking of it like a clock face for the light characteristics.
amazing simple explanation, no one ever mentioned the lights correspond to direction on a clock face! just made it so much easier to remember!
Thanks for the video !
Great job, thanks!
It's me again. Just about to complete Coxswain. Thank-you Casual Navigation.
The most natural way to tell east and west cardinal marks apart is by remembering that the Sun rises in the east and sets in the west. Imagining sunrise and sunset reflected off the ocean will help you make this connection very easily.
speaking very clear to understand
Very well explained👍
nice teaching thanks
Due to some reasons I missed my lecture on the cardinal buoys, came straight to the RUclips and dang!
Thanka a lot mate🙏🏻
Wow super simple. Great video
This is definitely going to be helpful because I have to teach twelve 10/11 years olds about Cardinal marks soon 😂😭
Wow 👏
Thank you very much sir
It's so useful thank you for you vedio it is so much useful
Thanks a lot, very well designed videos. One note: the expression "buoy, pillar or spar" for shape is a bit confusing. It is not what the British Admitaly Mariner's Handbook and other publications use. The say pillar or spar (not buoy) for most marks, except lateral and prefered channel (which can also be cone or can), and safe water mark, which can be a ball.
Just a detail, your work is very much appreciated, thanks again.
@ Casual Navigator what does Very quick & quick relate to in North cardinal mark i.e Q10s VQ5 s ? Or something different thanks in advance Ali
🕓👍
Could please confirm about the NE,NW,SE and SW?
If I'm heading south and i see a north cardinal mark ahead, what should be the action taken, where should i alter my course
you should check your compass and pass on the northside.
questions for you as you find them around marines and rivers
1 ware do row boat (coxed 4 and 8 )come into colregs as not power or sail ????
2 ware do paddle boards come into it as not power or sail ???
do you just give wide berth for safety reasons and reduce wash iif not inheading other vessels
In rule 25 it says vessel under Sail or under oar, to display light etc. So looking at the row boat or paddle boarders lack or inability to comply with the rules. Vessels with more power should keep out of way or avoid collision as much as possible. But a paddler will generally not be in a shipping lane or harbour entrance also I think there will be local rules that will specify right of way. As in Sydney harbour the sight seeing boats having right of way. But you are more than correct in giving them a wide berth and reduce wash... But remember Rule 1.
Are the cardinal marks always placed in groups of four? Or can you encounter 1 to four of them either alone or toghether?
