Should be passed on your starboard side when going up stream
In the United States, when you are outbound for sea you would have red buoys (even numbered) on your port side(left) and green buoys on your starboard side (right). When returning fromsea you would have red buoys on your starboard (right) side (Remember " Red right return") and green buoys on your port side (left).
Right (starboard side)
These cone-shaped buoys are always marked with red markings and even numbers. They mark the edge of the channel on your starboard (right) side when entering from the open sea or heading upstream.
Keep it on your starboard side.
The main purpose of the lateral system of red and green buoys and markers is to indicate the sides of a navigable waterway or the location of hazards. Red buoys/markers should be kept on the right or starboard side of the boat when traveling upstream, while green buoys/markers should be kept on the left or port side. This system helps to ensure safe navigation and prevent collisions.
