When you see a red nun buoy, you should keep it on your starboard (right) side when navigating. Red buoys typically indicate the right side of a channel when entering from the sea, following the "Red Right Returning" rule. This helps ensure safe passage and proper navigation within the waterway. Always be vigilant and aware of local navigation rules and conditions.
