As a ‘landlubber’ I was lost in parts of “Full Sails” especially ‘Ragdoll’ when the coasties were describing the various problems they had to solve with the buoys. What did the buoy look like? What did it do? Were two of the questions that I had. I was going through my books and found a possible answer. However it was volume 2 of the American Practical Navigator by Bowditch. I found both volumes of the book with a DuckDuck search. Volume 1 (FREE in PDF) explains and shows numerous types of buoys.
