For red markers, one should stay south or west. For black markers, one should stay north or east. The dilemma comes when one should stay northwest or southeast.
The OP has indicated a marker that is northwest of a rock. If the buoy is northwest of the hazard, should the marker be red (so that you stay to the west) or black (so that you stay to the north)? For this buoy and several others, it’s a judgment call as to what color the buoy should be.

Some other examples of buoys that could be either red or black: FL10 (northwest of Little Bear); southeast of Fish Island,
southeast of Treasure Island, northwest of Hull Island.
