Buoyage

Marinebuoyage.com features companies that supply buoys to the marine industry worldwide. Naturally we have the internationally recognised A & B systems run by the IALA but also buoys are manufactured to cover all aspects of markers etc required in the maritime industry. Buoys come in all shapes, sizes and colours. Some are tethered to the sea bed, others float around the world tracking currents and temperatures. In many cases the shape or colour defines the purpose of the buoy. A fisherman may use something as simple as an empty plastic water bottle to define the position of his nets or pots, whereas a channel marker can contain all kinds of electronics, light and sound features and be very expensive to manufacture.
