The greens are between the sea and thee transiting the ICW. Reds are inland

and ICW are one in the same, the local marks will usually take precedence,
but ICW marks may be there too. So, it can get confusing. There may also be
an ICW preferred and secondary channel. ICW aids have small yellow decal

You were OK up to here. Yellow triangles are on the inland side and
yellow squares are on the sea side. Starboard only if going south
from Nofolk.

symbols: Triangles indicate aids should be passed by keeping them on your
starboard side. Squares indicate aids should be passed by keeping them on
your port side. A yellow horizontal band provides no lateral information; it
just signifies that the aid marks the ICW.

Always consult a chart if you are transiting unfamiliar waters.
