When navigating the Intracoastal Waterway from New Jersey to Brownsville, Texas, how should you pass a marker displaying a yellow triangle?

Keep it on the port side
Keep it on the starboard side
Ignore the marker
Follow it directly

The correct answer is: Keep it on the starboard side

When navigating from New Jersey to Brownsville, Texas, the Intracoastal Waterway will have various markers indicating different routes and hazards. In order to pass a marker with a yellow triangle, you should keep it on the starboard side. This means the marker should be on the right side of your boat as you pass it. Keeping it on the port side, option A, would place the marker on the left side of your boat and would not be the correct way to pass it. Option C, ignoring the marker, is not a recommended navigation practice as markers are placed for a reason and can help you navigate safely. Option D, following the marker directly, is not advised as it could lead you off course and potentially into hazardous areas.
