Just had a look at an area to the NE of the link above, at 
http://www.openstreetmap.org/index.html?mlat=30.46089196986484&mlon=-88.6096138247082&zoom=14

The PGS coatline import needs tidying.  Water should be on the right hand 
side of ways tagges as natural = coastline.

So for instance the two islands in the center of the above link need to have 
their direction reversed.

There's also a two node way on its own tagged as natural = coastline, this 
needs to be deleted.

Regards

David
