TAYLOR Pickup/Marker/Mast Buoys

When it comes to reliable marine flotation and mooring solutions, TAYLOR has established itself as a trusted name in the pickup, marker, and mast buoys category. With a focus on durability and performance in harsh marine environments, TAYLOR's buoy lineup delivers the dependable flotation that boaters, marinas, and harbormasters require for both temporary marking and permanent mooring applications.

Engineering Excellence in Marine Buoys

TAYLOR's buoys are designed to withstand harsh marine elements with seamless, one-piece poly shell construction that delivers excellent durability and buoyancy. This engineering approach eliminates weak points where water intrusion could compromise flotation, ensuring long-term reliability whether you're marking navigation channels, identifying mooring locations, or supporting anchor chains in demanding conditions.

Sur-Moor Product Lines

TAYLOR's Sur-Moor series represents their flagship buoy technology, available in multiple configurations to suit different marine applications. The Traditional Sur-Moor Mooring Buoy delivers reliable, long-term mooring performance with a tough, hard skin design built to withstand sun and sea, featuring a seamless polyethylene shell, reflective stripe, and positive flotation. These buoys come in various sizes ranging from compact 12-inch models to substantial 30-inch options, allowing boat owners to select the appropriate buoyancy rating for their vessel size and mooring requirements.

For those seeking enhanced functionality, the Sur-Moor T3C design features a tube-through-the-center configuration that allows the anchor chain to pass directly through the buoy, allowing you to attach your boat to the top of the buoy. This innovative approach simplifies mooring systems and reduces the stress points that can occur with traditional eyebolt attachments.

Built for Long-Term Marine Exposure

Sur-Moor hard skin mooring buoys have a seamless and tough, one-piece polyethylene shell with ultraviolet light absorbers for long-term life under the sun, and have a sandblasted finish which allows the buoy to be easily painted for visibility. This UV protection is critical for markers and mast buoys that remain exposed to sunlight year-round, preventing the brittleness and cracking that plagues inferior products. The sandblasted finish also provides an ideal surface for applying custom colors or identification markings, making TAYLOR buoys popular choices for marina operators who need to distinguish between different mooring zones or boat assignments.

Safety and Visibility Features

TAYLOR understands that buoys serve both functional and safety roles on the water. Their buoys include reflective blue stripes for nighttime visibility, helping prevent navigation hazards after dark. The closed-cell foam filling provides positive water displacement that maintains flotation integrity even if the outer shell sustains minor damage, offering an extra layer of reliability that's essential for permanent installations.

Comprehensive Mooring Solutions

Beyond the buoys themselves, TAYLOR manufactures compatible hardware including galvanized rod assemblies with swivels and washers designed specifically for their traditional buoy models. This complete system approach ensures proper load distribution and reduces the risk of component failure, making TAYLOR a one-stop solution for professional mooring installations. Whether you need pickup buoys for temporary anchorages, marker buoys for channel navigation, or robust mast buoys for long-term moorings, TAYLOR's extensive product range delivers the durability and performance that marine environments demand.
