2007 Yamaha Outboard 150 150hp Boat Motor Owners Manual

Safety information
Reading buoys and other markers
The waters of the United States are  marked
for safe  navigation by  the lateral system  of
buoyage.  Simply  put,  buoys  and  markers
have  an   arrangement  of  shapes,   colors,
numbers and lights to show which side of the
buoy a boater should pass on when navigat-
ing in a particular direction. The markings on
these buoys are  oriented from the perspec-
tive of being entered from seaward (the boat-
er is going towards the port). This means that
red  buoys   are  passed   on  the  starboard
(right) side when proceeding from  open wa-
ter into port, and black buoys are to port (left)
side. When navigating out of port, your posi-
tion with respect  to the buoys should be  re-
versed;  red  buoys  should  be  to  port  and
black buoys to starboard.
Many bodies  of water  used by  boaters are
entirely within the boundaries of  a particular
state. The Uniform State Waterway Marking
System has been  devised for these waters.
This system uses buoys  and signs with dis-
tinctive shapes and colors to show regulato-
ry  or advisory  information.  These  markers
are  white   with  black   letters  and   orange
boarders. They signify speed zones, restrict-
ed areas,  danger areas,  and general  infor-
mation.
Remember,  markings   may  vary   by  geo-
graphic location.  Always consult local  boat-
ing  authorities  before  driving your  boat  in
unfamiliar waters.
