A non-lateral marker usually denotes hazards or obstructions in the water that you should navigate around. These markers are typically used to indicate safe passage or to warn of potential dangers, and they help maintain safe navigation in waterways.
A vertical open-faced diamond symbol is used to indicate a hazard such as a rock.
A non-lateral marker indicates the presence of hazards or obstructions that are not related to the direction of navigable waters. They are usually used to mark areas such as underwater pipelines, mooring fields, or designated swim areas. Boaters should navigate around non-lateral markers to avoid these hazards.
The orange circle on a non-lateral marker indicates a cautionary area or a special hazard in the water. It is used to alert boaters to exercise caution due to potential dangers such as underwater obstructions, shallow areas, or other navigational hazards. This marker is part of the U.S. Aids to Navigation System and helps ensure the safety of vessels operating in those waters.
A white marker with an orange diamond in the water typically signifies a hazard or an obstacle in navigation, such as rocks, shoals, or other dangers that are not marked by other buoys. It serves as a warning to boaters to exercise caution in the area. These markers are often used in conjunction with other navigational aids to ensure safe passage. Always maintain a safe distance from these hazards when navigating.

A non-lateral marker is a navigation aid that is not used to indicate the sides of a channel. These markers typically provide information such as safe passage, direction, or distance from hazards. Examples include buoys indicating junctions or turns in a waterway.
Hot water is more effective in separating marker pigment from filter paper as it helps to dissolve and lift the pigment more easily compared to cold water. However, it is important to consider the type of marker and paper used, as some markers may have pigments that are more soluble in cold water.
An orange square non-lateral marker indicates a caution or warning in navigational contexts, typically used in marine environments. It signifies areas where there may be hazards, such as underwater obstructions or changes in water depth, that require the attention of mariners. These markers help ensure safe navigation by alerting boaters to potential dangers in the vicinity.
