We have orange buoys 10-15' out from our pier. They are there for multiple reasons

1: to give the kids a boundary within a safe distance from the dock and not out in boat traffic

2: to keep boats from cruising too close to our dock where there are children in the water

3: to tie up floating mats and visitors sea doos

They aren't out there to claim the lake. They are there for safety. Not everyone on the lake is an experienced boater and keeps a safe distance. If you're on the wrong side of the buoy you're about to lose a prop.
