Quoting from: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:natural%3Dstrait "when mapping as a node this node should usually best be placed approximately in the middle between the coasts of the strait at the narrowest point" And just for ease of everyone the matching quote from https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:natural%3Dbay "When you map a bay as a node the node should be placed approximately at the middle of the bay with equal distance to the coast enclosing the bay on all sides." In the previous discussion i linked to i formulated it a bit more precisely: "If you want to formulate a formal mathematical rule for where the node for a bay is best placed: Place it so the variance of the distance of the node to the bay's shores is minimized. Most existing nodes comply with this rule remarkably well." -- Christoph Hormann http://www.imagico.de/
