The green and red tags are primary channels if the green band is on top that means the channel is to the right or starboard if the red is on top then the primary channel is to the left or port side.

Answer from: babysune01

The red color of the buoy indicates that the channel is on the port side or is towards left while the green color of the buoy indicates that the channel is to the starboard or towards the right.

Further explanation:

Buoys are essential for guiding the mariners at sea as the traffic signals are used to guide the drivers on the road. If different kinds of buoyage systems were used around the word then it would be the leading cause of accidents or confusion.
