How Danger, Safe Water, Special, and Emergency Wreck Marks fits the course

Danger, Safe Water, Special, and Emergency Wreck Marks gives a Day Skipper, powerboat, or harbour-pilotage learner the working knowledge needed for IALA Region A pilotage where mark recognition, direction of buoyage, safe side, and light rhythm need fast recall.

Distinguish hazard marks, safe-water marks, special-purpose marks, and emergency wreck marks without relying on colour alone.

Do not treat this as a bare fact list. A strong revision answer links the topic to mark family, colour pattern, topmark, light rhythm, charted danger, direction of buoyage, and the safe side of the mark, then states what you would do next.
