Which buoy may be odd numbered?
Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation
Correct Answer: Option B — An unlighted can buoy
In the IALA-B system, green buoys are odd-numbered and red buoys are even-numbered. A can buoy is a standard shape for a green, odd-numbered lateral mark. Spherical, red, and yellow buoys do not follow the odd-number convention used for green lateral channel markers.
