Bells
Like
1922 gong buoys,
there were mounted gongs inside the buoy body with clappers positioned around the
outside of the bell to connect and strike as it rolled with the action of
the waves. That repeated striking is what caused the "flat" impressions
around the lip and sound rim.

salvaged bronze whistle from a "whistling buoy"
-operated by nature;
trapped air sneaked
into the open tubular chamber rrunning from the bottom of the bell under
water up through the capped whistle top; when the buoy rose and fell with the
waves and pushed it through to make a sound
appx 33" tall, base
flange appx 9" diam
*YES IT WORKS! Just position a blower with
enough pressure (the output end of most home "shop vacs" will do just fine)
and hear it go!
