What are Mooring Buoys the only buoys for?

  1. Marking diving areas

  2. Legal tie-up for vessels

  3. Designating swim areas

  4. Indicating speed zones

The correct answer is: Legal tie-up for vessels

Mooring buoys are specifically designed for legal tie-up for vessels and serve as secure anchor points for boats to attach to. Other buoys, such as diving buoys, swim area buoys, and speed zone buoys, are used for different purposes and are not suitable for securing a vessel. For example, diving buoys mark areas where there may be underwater hazards or protected marine life, swim area buoys designate areas designated specifically for swimming, and speed zone buoys indicate restricted areas for boating at certain speeds. Therefore, these options are incorrect as they do not fulfill the primary purpose of mooring buoys.
