Starboard hand buoys are green and indicate the right side of a channel when approaching from the sea, guiding vessels to keep them on their starboard (right) side. Conversely, port hand buoys are red and indicate the left side of a channel, signaling that vessels should keep them on their port (left) side. Together, these buoys help ensure safe navigation in maritime channels.
Starboard hand buoys are typically green and indicate the right side of a channel when entering from the sea, guiding vessels to keep them on their starboard side. Conversely, port hand buoys are red and mark the left side of the channel, indicating that vessels should keep them on their port side. These buoys are part of the lateral buoyage system, which helps navigators identify safe passages in waterways. Together, they ensure safe navigation by marking the boundaries of navigable channels.
Under the Inland Rules, red buoys should be passed on your starboard side when going upstream. They mark the left hand side (port) of the navigable channel when you are 'outbound,' and they will be on your right had side (starboard) when you are 'inbound.' (RED = RIGHT = RETURN)

Nun buoys typically have odd numbers. In the IALA buoyage system, odd-numbered nun buoys are used to indicate the right side of a navigable channel when approaching from seaward. They are usually colored red and have a conical shape. Even-numbered buoys, on the other hand, are used for the left side of the channel and are typically green.
In Region A it is a starboard hand buoy, in Region B it is a port hand buoy. These are lateral marks and in some areas the shape of the buoy cannot be relied upon.
As you stand on a ship and face the prow, the left hand side is called Port and the right hand side is called Starboard.
Starboard is a nautical name for the right hand side of a boa,. port is the nautical name for the left hand side of the boat.
starboard!
Since this is a Red Lighted Buoy sighted while approaching a harbour,this is a Lateral starboard hand side mark,IALA region B.To keep this buoy on ur starboard side while entering the harbour.
