Strictly speaking there are no buoys or any other features in the GPS system. The GPS systems only provides your location on the globe. Whatever mapping software or system you use provides the landmarks and other mapped features. Many systems allow you to add waypoints, use custom maps, or do other things. For example, Navionics will allow you to connect your depth finder to your GPS for making real-time maps of the lake bottom. You can also share this data with others for crowd-sourced up-to-date bottom contours.
