The BfS also states: "Positions S1) to S5) are marked by g/r/g light buoys (yellow, Blz. (2+1) 15s) with g. horizontal cross. Shipping is requested to keep sufficient distance. Increased attention, caution and consideration are requested. Adverse circumstances may make it necessary to change the date at short notice.
