Hello everybody, this is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today, we're gonna take a look at this Taylor Made 49 inch tall Sur-Mark Red Nun Regulatory Marker Buoy. Now, this regulatory buoy will float on the water surface to mark the starboard side of your channel. Basically, what you'll do is set this buoy on the right side of the waterway for boats traveling upstream, and you'll secure it in place using an anchor chain attached to the galvanized eye at the bottom of this buoy. Did wanna zoom in just to show you what we're talking about. If you noticed at the very bottom, there's the eye where your anchor chain will go through, and this whole bottom section right here, it is an internal concrete ballast, and then right up here is the 18 inch collar ring, which will keep the buoy upright and easy to spot.

Now, this is a durable single-piece construction, does use a closed cell foam, so it won't absorb any water, and it has a polyethylene molded outer shell, which is UV resistant. This part is made in the USA. Few dimensions on this, if we measure from very bottom of it to the very top is 49 inches, the column diameter right here is 10 inches, the collar ring is gonna be 18 inches in diameter, and when this is floating in the water, it's gonna sit about halfway on the collar ring, so the visibility above the water line from here up to the top is about 39 inches. The buoyancy on this is about 40 pounds. But that should do it for the review on the Taylor Made 49 inch tall Sur-Mark Red Nun Regulatory Marker Buoy..
