Go!

Schooner Wharf Bar is a non-negotiable stop in Key West. First bar I ever visited here in 2002, and the vibe immediately made me want to come back again and again.

Cold peel-and-eat pink shrimp 🍤, a bucket of icy b**r 🍺 (bring back Kalik!), and a front-row seat by the stage—perfection.

Bonus points for having both a morning AND afternoon happy hour. Where else does that?!

Day shapes are an important part of COLREGS because they help identify what a vessel is doing during daylight. This infographic covers the main shapes for vessels at anchor, under sail and power, towing, fishing, not under command, mine clearance, restricted in ability to manoeuvre and constrained by draught.

It also includes the commonly seen combinations for RAM vessels, dredging and diving operations, towing vessels, pilot vessels, vessels aground, fishing and trawling vessels, sailing yachts and small dive boats. Learning these shapes makes it much easier to understand a vessel’s situation before you even look at its lights at night.

For cadets and beginners, the easiest approach is to first remember the eight basic shapes and then learn the special combinations one by one. Once these patterns become familiar, identifying vessels at sea becomes much quicker and more confident.

Save this post for your navigation revision and share it with someone preparing for a deck or nautical exam.

IALA Maritime Buoyage System - Basic Things To Know ✅⚓️

This infographic gives a brief overview of the IALA Maritime Buoyage System, which helps mariners safely identify navigable channels, hazards, and special areas.

* Lateral Marks: Indicate the sides of a channel. Region A and Region B use different color arrangements.
* Preferred Channel Marks: Show the preferred route when a channel divides.
* Safe Water Mark: Indicates navigable water all around the mark.
* Cardinal Marks: Indicate the direction in which safe water lies—North, East, South, or West—relative to a hazard.
* Isolated Danger Mark: Marks a specific danger with navigable water surrounding it.
* Emergency Wreck Marking Buoy: Temporarily marks a newly discovered wreck or hazard.
* Special Mark: Identifies special areas or features such as cables, pipelines, and recreation zones.

Key point: A good mariner must recognize the color, shape, topmark, and light characteristic of each buoy to navigate safely.
