    A large marine buoy, heavily encrusted with marine growth and showing significant weathering with red and black paint visible, is being recovered onto the deck of a buoy tender or similar work vessel. The buoy appears to have a superstructure cage on top and is being lifted by crane or davit equipment. Several crew members in safety gear are visible on deck overseeing the operation.
