Is it an Australian South Cardinal?

 

[Marmalade]

It's a signpost - means: Buxey (wherever that is) 2 miles

 

[MoodySabre]

Not to be confused with

Buxom Too

I'm not sure what a cylinder above 2 upward pointing cones means.

Is there usually a radar reflector on top of a cardinal mark or is there a very narrow beamed boat behind the buoy?

 

[SwedishLass]

Without the GPS handy I wasn't sure but according to google it's probably in Hertfordshire
Buxey

 

[Sixpence]

Confident in the knowledge that in truth I have not clue one , could it possibly be 51.38.97N 01.00.15E ?
Or shall I go back to sleep ?

your all wrong I thought at least one of you would have noticed its on a hill or does the horizon always slope one direction or the other, HUMMMMMM and i always thought it was tides that were slowing me down.

 

[FullCircle]

The mans a fool. Anyone can see its just the tide coming in, as it slopes the other way when heading out. I note Full Circle style water in the background, about as much there as the average dishcloth.

who needs all that water anyway, god forbid that gobal warming hides all our ray, banks, horses, and spits they are the only landscape we have around here and we love em.

Although when i am back on the emerald isle 40 fathoms 3 meters off the beach is a wonder to behold. Having said that dont think i could aford to sail there just think how much anchor chain you need.

 

[FullCircle]

<<<<just think how much anchor chain you need.>>>>>>>>>>>

about 3 metres just to reach the shore!

 

[Artemis_C2121]

only issue with that is when the tide goes out its one hell of a drop off the back of the boat and its all up hill to the pub
