Oh, Buoy!

From Kim Knox Beckius, About.com

If you've ever wondered what a Maine lobsterman's day is like, come along on this photo tour or book a spot aboard the Captain Jack Lobster Boat Adventure.
Lobster Buoy - Each Maine Lobsterman Paints His Buoys with a Unique Color Scheme and Design

One of the first things we learn is that each Maine lobsterman paints his buoys with a unique color scheme and design. There are 30-35 lobstermen who fish out of Rockland, so it is important for each to be able to identify his traps.
