Dear Nanda,
You can use markers for placing the symbols. Assuming you have two array with the position of the buoys, say buoy_lon buoy_lat, plotting the points on a map is straightforward. 

 marker = gsn_add_polymarker(wks,map,buoy_lon,buoy_lat,mres)

You can control the marker size and type with marker resources mres. Remember to create first a map projection with map=gsn_csm_map(wks, res).

Let us know if you need more explanations, but I assume that you can find a lot of examples on this on the website. https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/ <https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/>
