The canyon collapsed...? Interesting. No, I believe the buoys were installed in the same locations as they have been in the past. They're anchored by engine blocks which tend to drift a bit over time. The thinking behind the new lower profile ecological buoys is that they will hopefully drift less. The company I work for has been putting the buoys in place for the last 10 or so years.

Thanks. I just remember the bouy's used to be placed a little east of Alligator Head (near the stairs going down to the beach)... Now they look like they are west of the caves. Is it also true that they put 700lb anchors on them? Let's hope they don't move again...
