A spot marking buoy. A flotation body, cylindrical in shape with rounded ends having a groove around the periphery of the flotation body creating a reel with one end of a string attached to the reel and the other end of the string attached to an anchor weight. The flotation body employs angular cores to receive a rubber locking cord which is affixed to the flotation body by the use of crimps or knots on the ends of the rubber locking cord with said crimps or knots being larger in circumference than the angular cores. And surface grooves on each side of the top end of the flotation body to receive and secure the rubber locking cord when in use and when storage. Included are recessed counterweights, an anchor weight and anchor weight housing for storage and a built in hand grip for reminding. When buoy is discharged into water and the anchor weight sinks and comes to rest on the bottom of a body of water, counterweights resist rotation of flotation body and unwinding of string and employment of the rubber locking cord prohibits further rotation of flotation body and unwinding of string.
