If you have been on the water in a boat at night you have probably noticed that many things in front of you light up when your boat lights hit them. This is because many objects on the water are overlayed with reflective tape. Without this assistance at night, it would be next to impossible to navigate. Both reflective tape and reflectors are used to mark objects and channels on the water. The two main colors for channel markers are green and red. You may have heard the term "red, right, when returning" meaning that as you go back into a channel that leads out of bayou or lagoon the red markers will be on the right. On the intracoastal waterway they will be on the right or left depending on which direction you are going. In any event, green always marks one side of a channel and red the other. As previously stated, without navigational aids such as the reflectors and channel markers, it would be almost impossible to navigate at night on the water. Reflective tape can be used in other ways on the water as well. Many boat owners will use the tape on their vessels and also on docks. Anything that a boater can hit, should be marked in some way.
REFLECTIVE TAPE & REFLECTORS FOR CHANNEL MARKERS
Reflective Inc. carries the reflective tape needed to make channel markers, docks, buoys, pilings, boats, canoes, personal watercraft, survival suits, scuba gear, and much more, reflective for maximum night time visibility. We have everything from a type 1 to a type 11 retro reflective sheeting, each with special characteristics that lend them to certain applications. We carry "Green and Red Reflective Tapes". We also carry "White and Yellow Reflectors"to mark docks, seawalls and other non channel related objects. In addition, we carry an engineer grade reflective tape in red, green and several other colors. Finally, we carry what is called "SOLAS Reflective Tape."
