CM 93 slightly offset? How to correct?

Hi,

I recently noticed that our CM93 chart set which we use as base layer, seems to be slightly miss positioned.
I noticed that when looking at a marina.

On the MBtile chartset all AIS targets where properly docked. When I switched to CM93 they where about 100m off the dock.
The marina was clearly visible in both chart sets.

Is there an easy way to fix this?

I did find the feature of CM correction when quilting is off.
Still this corrects only a very small area.
I lost a lot of thrust into our CM 93 base layer as I feel I can never be sure if it's correct.
The MBtile drawn with SASplanet seem better aligned on average.

As you noticed you can only correct cm93 with quilting off. Then there is only one cell visible and corrections made are only for this single cell.


Btw, a 100m is nothing, we found on the east coast Canada offsets upto 2.5nM
