A red cone-shaped buoy, often referred to as a "navigational buoy," typically indicates the right side of a navigable channel when entering from open water. It is part of the IALA (International Association of Lighthouse Authorities) buoyage system and is used to guide mariners safely through waterways. The buoy often features a number or letter that corresponds to specific navigational information. Additionally, it may also have a light or sound signal to enhance visibility and recognition.
