whistling buoy
A whistling buoy is a type of buoy, equipped with a sounding device that produces a whistling sound, used as a navigation aid at sea. The sound is generated by air being forced through two or more whistle tubes by the motion of the sea. This allows sailors to be warned of hazards such as rocks, reefs, or to navigate channels in poor visibility conditions by listening to the frequency and pattern of the whistles.
