The Role of Ocean Buoys in Maritime Safety
Ocean buoys act as navigational aids, marking safe passages, indicating hazards, and defining maritime boundaries. Their primary functions include:

1)Guiding Vessels: Marking channels and safe routes for navigation.

2)Indicating Hazards: Alerting mariners to dangers such as rocks, reefs, and shallow waters.

3)Demarcating Zones: Defining areas for fishing, anchoring, and restricted zones.

By providing clear visual and electronic signals, marine buoys help prevent collisions, groundings, and other maritime accidents.

Advantages of Our Ocean Buoys

Ocean buoys are essential for marking offshore structures such as oil rigs, drilling platforms, and wind farms. These installations pose navigation hazards, and buoys serve as warning markers to prevent accidental collisions.
