      Cool float ! I wonder if it came off the net & floated out of the med , across the atlantic to the usa to be picked up on a beach somewhere !!
      A nice thought !!

      I have the same buoy, although the markings are more faded. Could you advise how you were able to establish the year of manufacture and what you sold the buoy for?

      I fashioned a table lamp with the float which I found in Essex in the UK.
