Mooring buoys are floating devices anchored to the seabed, designed to secure boats and ships in a specific location. They provide a safe and convenient way for vessels to tie up without the need for anchoring, which can damage the underwater environment. Mooring buoys are often used in marinas, harbors, and popular recreational areas. These buoys are typically marked with bright colors and may have specific identification numbers. They can be used for various purposes, including fishing, recreational boating, and commercial shipping. Proper use of mooring buoys helps maintain order and safety in busy waterways.
