What do lateral markers indicate?

  1. The edges of safe water areas

  2. The location of marine wildlife

  3. Speed limits for boats

  4. Areas of restricted fishing

The correct answer is: The edges of safe water areas

Lateral markers are designed to indicate the edges of safe water areas for boaters. This helps to ensure that boats stay in areas where they will not encounter any hazards or obstructions, such as shallow water or rocks. The other options are incorrect because they do not relate to the purpose of lateral markers. B) The location of marine wildlife is not indicated by lateral markers, as their purpose is for navigational purposes only. C) Speed limits for boats are typically indicated by buoys or signs, not lateral markers. D) Areas of restricted fishing may be indicated by different types of markers, but not specifically by lateral markers.
