Brilliant ! Now with the north and south and east and west markers How do we determine North of the North South of the South East of the east And West of the west Without a compass ?
A prudent navigator will always have a magnetic compass. However, using the sun direction, you can always estimate the direction of North or South and estimate the other cardinal points accordingly :-) In the Northern Hemisphere, the sun will be in the south at local midday - when the sun is at it's highest point. We are always happy to help :-)
@@CoastalSafety Yes I am primarily speaking about inland waters Rivers Dams Lakes And such And I am beginning to think that the North South East And West markers are essentially void on the waters of which I speak ? Many inland vessels ( Smaller boats ) don't have compasses etc ...
@@CoastalSafety I am trying to gain an extremely broad perspective I am happy with what you teach I learn from many of you Text books are good But ON THE WATER It's a Different Reality
Stop your vessel and clarify your position before entering the "Danger Zone" - when you ascertain what danger the buoy is marking, you can then take appropriate action :-)
Simple way to remember is .... "Port" buoys are "can shaped" and are "left" on the "portside" of the vessel when transiting in to the "port". The colours are different on each side of the Atlantic (and a few other areas) mainly for historical reasons - as mentioned by the red and green coloured map of the world in the video. The majority of the world is IALA A and has red can shaped buoys (cola can) and green conical buoys (green tree shape). In all areas the shape of the buoys remain the same - can or conical - only the colours are different (as is the spelling of the word "colour").
A question was raised as to the shape of "Special Marks" - they can be any shape but must be yellow. If they are shaped as "port" or "starboard" lateral marks then they may indicate a channel (a special channel ) such as a private channel to a palace or private establishment, for example.

I have a stupid question.. . But I have to teach this to bunch of 11 year old cadets soon so I wanna try and understand 😭. So basically. If I was sailing north and saw a south cardinal mark in front of me ..I'd need to sail south of that mark....so wouldn't that mean to turn back around ??? That doesn't sound right ?? But im so confused.... also... surely you'd be sent in different directions depending on what angle you approached the cardinal mark ??? Update : I just realised that in a shipping lane you'd only really be approaching from one of 2 directions ... so if you met the south cardinal mark you'd just move port or starboard till you meet the next marker and go back on course.... I think 😂😭
Hi, interesting question. Best to remember that the cardinal buoy always tells you where the safe water is. So you could say that the "danger area" is in the other direction. Therefore, in your situation, if you are south of the south cardinal buoy , you are already in the "safe area". North of the (south) buoy is the "danger" - so yes, you would be best to stay south of the south cardinal buoy and check your position very carefully. Once you know your correct position - you can check the chart and find the best way forward :-)
@@CoastalSafety thank you very much . I guess what I have to remember is that alot of this is situational and you have to take it as it comes and look at your charts as you say .... gonna be interesting trying to explain that to 10 year olds ..but I definitely feel more confident now 😂😁. Thank you for the reply !
2 weird explanations from this guy 1) The Starboard marker is a "Green Shapé" ???? 2) Mentions the Special Buoys, but then doesnt say whether to avoid them, approach them, stay away from them, sail south of them etc, and he didnt explain their lighting colours either !!!!
1) IALA "A" exists beyond US waters. The rest of the world uses "green" buoys on the starboard side of the channel upstream. The buoys are called starboard - the colour is green.
Hello "Me Here" just checking that you understand the explanation. There are 2 systems for colours of the lateral or channel buoys. The shapes are the same ie. a can shape on the port side going upstream into the harbour or river. A conical or "Christmas Tree" shape on the starboard side when entering the harbour or river. The main difference is the colours are reversed in the IALA "B" areas ie. The US coast. In the IALA "A" system which is the rest of the world the colours are the same as the navigation lights on a vessel that is to say that the starboard buoys are green colour as in the green colour of a vessel's starboard side light and the port buoys are red as in the colour of the red port side lights of a vessel.

What a great way of helping me remember this, thanks so much!!!
Nice and clear. Good nematics to help remember each of the 10 categories of buoys.
Thanks.

A useful introduction for beginners such as myself.
Better explained than my day skipper course.

Wonderful explanation. Many thanks
The cardinal buoy topmarks were originally designed with this simple mnemonic in mind: The Sun rises in the east and sets in the west.
Excellent. Thx

Now with the north and south and east and west markers
How do we determine North of the North
South of the South
East of the east
And West of the west
Without a compass ?

Much better if you take a compass to sea with you :-)
@@CoastalSafety
Yes I am primarily speaking about inland waters
Rivers
Dams
Lakes
And such
And I am beginning to think that the
North
South
East
And West
markers are essentially void on the waters of which I speak
?
Many inland vessels ( Smaller boats ) don't have compasses etc
...
The buoyage system is international. A compass is also useful for inland waterways in fog.

I am trying to gain an extremely broad perspective
I am happy with what you teach
I learn from many of you
Text books are good
But ON THE WATER
It's a Different Reality
great video! thank you.
if im steering 000'C and found a north cardinal mark nearly right ahead, what action would i take?
Stop your vessel and clarify your position before entering the "Danger Zone" - when you ascertain what danger the buoy is marking, you can then take appropriate action :-)
superb :)
The channel markers, you dont say which way they are set. Port on left when going into port? (most logical to me) and is it the same in both regeons?
Simple way to remember is ....
"Port" buoys are "can shaped" and are "left" on the "portside" of the vessel when transiting in to the "port".
The colours are different on each side of the Atlantic (and a few other areas) mainly for historical reasons - as mentioned by the red and green coloured map of the world in the video.

In all areas the shape of the buoys remain the same - can or conical - only the colours are different (as is the spelling of the word "colour").
safety buoys has only 2 shapes (piller & spar)
correction *
specials Marks has only 2 (pillar &spar)
IALA Buoyage - NP735 section 5.4 states " Spherical, pillar or spar buoys are used as Safe Water marks. "
@@CoastalSafety sorry i meant special
A question was raised as to the shape of "Special Marks" - they can be any shape but must be yellow.
