I have tagged the rivers Trent and Ouse which merge into the Humber estuary to get it to render and be consistently tagged. I tried a few schemes and got advice from others, especially David Groom. I broke up the river into chunks. I tagged the banks of these chunks as waterway=riverbank and natural=water. I tagged the islands in the same way. I then created a multipolygon relation to place the islands in the river. I had to get the direction of the way right to persuade the multipolygon relation to work. Near the mouth of the river a chunk of coastline extends into the river.
