🔍 Key Concepts

• IALA Region B lateral system used in the United States • The memory aid "red, right, returning" for buoys and daymarks when coming from seaward • The shape and color of starboard and port side daymarks on the Intracoastal Waterway

💭 Think About

• When you are entering from sea (returning), which side is marked by red aids to navigation in Region B? • For fixed daymarks, what shape is used to mark the starboard side versus the port side? • Look at each choice: which one combines the correct color and correct shape for the starboard side when returning from sea?

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm which color (red or green) marks the starboard side when returning from seaward in Region B • Verify the standard shape for starboard daymarks versus port daymarks (triangle vs square) • Eliminate any options whose shape or color do not match a standard lateral daymark for starboard side
