OLD Duncan chart is dated 1997-1998. I have 34 way-points in my old Magellan 6000 GPS Plotter..some are "My Own"..not associated with buoys or marks, but most are the numbered lighted buoys.
Back in the Old days, in Salt water, before Loran or GPS, I ALWAYS steered toward buoys that
Make Noise (Bells, whistles or horns)....If the buoy had a light, all the better. A noise maker can usually be found in the FOG, night or day if you're close.. Back in those days it was called
Dead Reckoning. 
NB
Before GPS and Loran, our electronic navigation was done with an RDF. (Radio Direction Finder) .....we've come a long way baby.
