Diamond Shoals (41025) 35.01 North -75.4 West | MapBlast
Local Time: 4:12 PM EDT on July 24, 2008 [America/New_York]  
Buoy Type: 3-meter discus buoy Buoy Hull: Hull Number 3D37 Payload: ARES payload Owned by:
Windspeed measured by: obtained from anemometer Sea Surface measured by: Intake Note: This buoy is located in the Monitor National Marine Sanctuary.

Station 41025 was re-established 10 nautical miles southwest of its original position to reduce the shoaling hazards experienced in storms.

Right whales are active off NC. NOAA recommends vessels reduce speeds below 10 knots, when consistent with safety of navigation. For futher info go to: www.nero.noaa.gov/shipstrike/
