The fins are positioned substantially coextensively in a lane of each core. At least one spacer is circumferentially positioned between and connected to the core members and fins. A flotation assembly is axially positioned within the first core member having the larger inside diameter and compression fit against the inner surface thereof. The flotation assembly includes a hollow, water tight cylindrical body having a central axial opening for receiving a cable or like device for stringing a plurality of wave suppressors together to form a lane demarcation.
