I saw the unusual Christmas colors of these lobster buoys and wondered about them.
Fortunately the lobster fisherman who owned them was nearby. He told me he's had those colors since he was 3 years old - that his dad (also a lobster fisherman) registered those colors for him - telling him, "As soon as you can be on my boat without wetting your pants, you can have your own colors".
He added, "My poor parents - it took a good year longer to potty train my sister, because she wasn't interested in boats, lobsters or buoys".
