An important part of the BOATsmart!® online safe boating course is understanding aids to navigation. These are the system of buoys and markers that assist a boater in determining their position on the water and identify any potential dangers and waterway obstructions. Aids to navigation can be used to plot position and course on nautical charts and also assist in choosing the preferred and safest route when out on the water. It is prohibited under the Criminal Code of Canada to interfere with any navigation aid. Operators should never tie up to a marker, buoy or any other aid to navigation. In addition, no person may willfully alter, remove or conceal a signal, buoy or other type of navigation marker. There are two main systems of navigation are used on Canadian Waterways: The Lateral System and The Cardinal System. All aids to navigation have identifying marks such as colours, lights and numbers.

What is a Buoy?

A buoy is a floating marker or signal that is attached to the bottom of the waterway or mounted on a feature (such as an island) of the waterway. Buoys serve four main functions. They provide warnings, information, mark underwater hazards and provide a system for navigation.

Floating Buoys

There are different styles of floating buoys used on Canadian waterways:

Pillar Buoys: Pillar Buoys are typically the largest of all floating buoys and will sometimes have a lighted top. These types of buoys tend to be narrower than Can and Nun buoys. Spar Buoys: Spar Buoys are common on smaller waterways. They have a cylinder shape and are typically smaller than Light Buoys. Can Buoys: Can buoys are wider than Spar Buoys. They are always green in colour and should be kept on the left (port) side when heading upstream Nun/Conical Buoys: Nun buoys are also wider than spar buoys. They are always red in colour and should be kept on the right (starboard) side when heading upstream. All floating buoys are attached to the bottom of the waterway using a structure of underwater cables and anchors. To help you know how to spot these different types of buoys, here’s what they look like.

Systems of Buoys in Canada

There are several systems of buoys and markers used on Canadian waterways to aid in navigation. Here are a few important systems that you should know: The Lateral System: The Lateral System consists of red and green buoys used to mark preferred safe routes. The Lateral System also includes Fairway Buoys, Isolated Danger Buoys and Day Beacons. The Cardinal System: The Cardinal System consists of yellow and black buoys that indicate safe routes by the cardinal compass points. A third type of buoy system to be aware of is Special Purpose Buoys. These buoys may be yellow or white in colour and are used to mark dangers such as racecourses, underwater structures, pipelines, etc.

Article Summary

X

To spot an online dating scammer, look out for any request for money or personal information such as your home address or bank details, since this is a sign they’re trying to extort money out of you. If they say they’ve fallen in love with you before you’ve met or even had a phone call, this is also a good indication that a scammer is trying to manipulate you. Ask them to video chat or talk on the phone, so you can prove their identity. If their grammar is poor or they contradict themselves, be skeptical of them, since scammers are often foreign and struggle to maintain their story. Try downloading any images they use and uploading them to Google image search, since many scammers steal people’s photos from the internet.
