Summary
Philadelphia, PA (July 10)--The crew of the CGC Redwood (WLM 685) hooks a Pillar buoy and prepares to bring it on deck. The two major classes of buoys used in the Coast Guard are Ocean Buoys and River Buoys. Ocean buoys consist of unlighted cans, nuns, and spheres, as well as sound buoys and standard lighted buoys. Standard lighted buoys are designated by IALA as pillar buoys. River buoys consist of unlighted cans and nuns with specially designed fins and counterweights. USCG photo by SANTOS, DAVID PA1
