Ownership Criteria of Spare Private Beacons
- Light Buoys : 15% or more of installation number within the harbor limits and 20% or more of installation number outside the harbor limits(when the installation number is under five, it should be one or bigger)

Buoys are floating maritime structures used to guide a sailing boat to the harbor or signal an obstacle. They mark courses, dangerous rocks, shallow waters, no sailing zones, and maritime construction sites. When a lamp is installed in them, they are called light buoys.
They are placed to signal rocks, no sailing zones, course width, changing points of course, and changing points of water level at the harbor.
