The East Cardinal buoy, and the east end of this breakwater seem to be shown too far east of their actual position.
Evidence:-
(a) My recent GPS track, accurate to within a few feet at Calshot, Bramble tide gauge, and Trinity Pier (Cowes), passed through the indicated east end of this breakwater.
(b) Nautical chart.
(c) Satellite view.
Other features of this breakwater, and the surrounding buoys may also be inaccurate.

Please could an expert investigate. It appears there are problems with (multi-)polygons right around Isle of Wight. Some GPS devices render large areas of the Island as water, especially at certain scales. The same problem is not present for the mainland to the north of Solent, ie it only exists on IoW.
It has been suggested that some multi-polygons may be broken, interrupted, corrupt, or other.
See https://groups.google.com/d/msg/osmand/YZtg8V3Nsis/D0M6aYRCCgAJ where there are example images.
