I'm a newbie and looking a this I would probably go between the two blacks as it seems to be a channel. I'm only guessing from the basic format of the pic.
The water depth seems good between them as well.
BUT again I'm not one to follow on the water at this point

I think we were talking about the lone black marker near the bottom of the island.

The three markers on top are more clear. There is a shallow spot between the uppermost black marker and FL24. Then a clear channel between the FL24 and the black marker nearest the island.

Has anyone noticed the dashed green lines on the chart? They sometime indicate the route that the Mount Washington travels, but they also indicate the recommended route in many other locations. In the case of the black tip south of Treasure you would proceed east of the marker as the line clearly indicates. Remember, you go north and/or east of a black tip, which ever makes more sense. It's pretty clear if you look at the chart.
