Under the U.S. Aids to Navigation System, red buoys are typically used to mark the right side of a channel when returning from sea, following the "Red Right Returning" rule. These buoys are often cylindrical in shape and may have a topmark, such as a conical point. They indicate safe passage for vessels navigating inland waterways. Additionally, red buoys are part of the IALA System A, which is used in most regions worldwide.
