A floating object anchored in water that marks navigation channels, shows where it's safe for boats to go, or warns of dangers.
From Dutch 'boei,' related to Old French 'boie.' Used for centuries to help sailors navigate safely through waters with rocks or shallow areas.
Buoys are floating sign posts for ships—they mark invisible underwater highways and have saved countless lives by warning sailors about shipwrecks and rocks before GPS and modern technology!
