🔍 Key Concepts

• Aids to Navigation (ATON) color meanings in the U.S. lateral system • Difference between lateral marks (port/starboard) and safe water / mid-channel marks • How daymarks/dayboards look for a mark that can be passed on either side

💭 Think About

• Which type of mark can you safely pass on either side and what is its purpose? • Do mid-channel or safe water marks use the same colors as port and starboard hand buoys, or a distinct pattern? • Think about chart symbols: what color pattern is used to show a mark that indicates water all around?

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm which single mark indicates safe water all around / mid-channel (not just one side of a channel). • Verify the standard color pattern (stripes vs solid color) used for that mark in the U.S. system. • Make sure you are not confusing ICW dayboards (orange/white) with regular lateral and safe water marks.
