What are Cardinal Buoys primarily used for?

To mark the area where the waterway splits into two channels
To indicate a specific hazard and the location of safe water
To mark the right side of a channel
To indicate the center of a safe passage

The correct answer is: To indicate a specific hazard and the location of safe water

Cardinal Buoys are specifically used to mark hazards and the location of safe water. They are not used for marking the right side of a channel or the center of a safe passage, as those roles are designated for other types of buoys. While they may also be used to mark where a waterway splits into two channels, this is not their primary purpose.
