Which type of daymark is used to mark the port side of the channel when entering from sea?
Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation
Correct Answer: Option D — Green square
The IALA-B system, utilized in US waters, mandates that green square daymarks designate the port side of a channel when entering from seaward. This follows the 'red right returning' convention, where green marks are kept to the port side when moving from the sea toward the interior.
