Default Badly marked pots in Clyde

Up till now, most of the boats seem to have used reasonably visible markers, large buoys or similar. Last weekend however I saw all sorts of markers ranging from plastic oil cans (black, 5 litre) through washing-up liquid containers to a small white fender right on the track from Toward buoy to Rothesay, about 400 metred west of the buoy. The last one was invisible from more than 100 metres.

At least the usual clutter of markers just north of Toward point on the Innellan shore were missing.
