A crossed diamond is used to mark a swimming area. This is considered a 'Boat Exclusion Area," and may be placed outside spots such as a dam, rapids, swim area, etc.

Dimond
a human figure in profile in water (wavy line) from the torso up, with an arm raised with elbow bent (like an Australian crawl stroke).
I've been to the beach and these are the markers you'll usually see farther out in the body of water. Think of this marker as a "No Swimming beyond this point" sign. These markers are usually set out in the deeper water. I don't know the exact measurement of where they'd be placed but my guess would be they'd set it out on the edge of where it just gets deeper than 5 ft. No one is allowed outside those markers and no boats are allowed inside those markers. These markers show the public of where it's too deep for them to swim safely and these markers show the boats where the swimming zone is.
Keep out of the marked area. Non-lateral markers are navigation aids that give information other than the edges of safe water areas. The most common are regulatory markers that are white and use orange markings and black lettering. Exclusion area markers (with crossed diamonds) indicate areas off-limits to all vessels such as swimming areas, dams, and spillways.
Question:Which symbol on a regulatory marker indicates a dam or stumps?a:squareb:crossed diamondc:circled:diamondYour Answer:cCorrect:dExplanation:Non-lateral markers are navigation aids that give information other than the edges of safe water areas. The most common are regulatory markers that are white and use orange markings and black lettering. Danger area markers (with diamonds) warn of dangers such as rocks, shoals, construction, dams, or stumps. Always proceed with caution and keep a safe distance. Never assume that every hazard will be marked by a buoy.

white, orange and red
The symbol for a swimming area (on Google Earth or likewise) is a human figure, torso up, arm up as if breathing in freestyle, behind a wavy line that signifies water.
In a regulatory market, a no wake or idle speed area is typically marked by a specific buoy symbol, often featuring a white circle with a diagonal red stripe or a red "idle speed" sign. These markers indicate that vessels must operate at minimal speed to prevent creating wakes that could disturb the surrounding environment or other boaters. Always adhere to local regulations and signage for safe boating practices.
White tubular buoy, orange diamond with black cross in it. Tells boaters to keep out.
