That was evil I was stuck on 8,8,14 and 6,5,8,23 for a couple of hours.
making the breaks represent a number was tricky indeed.

Big W ? is the Big W an extra as it is not used in the solution for the coordinates?

It's necessary to have two directions and the coordinates given are correct

Fingers x'd I'm keeping my fingers x'd that the eventual winner will be 1 of the very intelligent members of this forum. I've been impressed by the logic and lateral thinking in obtaining the increasingly difficult co-ordinates. I'm the equivalent of an intrigued spectator now.
Good luck you smart cookies!

That was one tough wall! I had a really hard time seeing the contents of that wall. And brightening up my screen didn't help either. Thanks for final number robg113. My eyes can rest now. Between that morse code puzzle and the wall puzzle my eyes are tired. But, I am looking forward to the 7th.
Jase- Hazy, hot and humid here in CT, USA.

Ditto! My sister and I are playing the game but know we probably won't win. Several times I don't know what I'd have done if not for the help from some of you!! Every now and then I get a brilliant flash and hopefully I can help also! I got brave enough to sign on and post--never done this before!! It's hot in Texas and we're waiting for the movie and the next clue!! Good luck dittos from Texas!!

Okay, for the new people just catching up, please post HERE about Cozumel rather than starting a new thread. It will help us keep it organized. Thank you!

Hey guys You guys have been great I have been watching the progress of your members and others out there on this and a number of other sites, this is by far the most informing...........................BUT,
There is a subculture and knowledge that supersedes this site and forum,
I have already seen and completed the last three POTC puzzles, they have been revealed by at least four other members of a collective of the participating countries. This has been done by monotonous trial and error. Volvo and the programmers are timing all of the visits and clicks (mistakes) to see who are officially playing legitimately.
Be warned that this game is not all that meets the eye, the ad campaign the puzzles themselves and the various sites offering 'Help' are all carefully monitored and considered when choosing the final seven.
The best possible way to play is fair and if you cannot solve the puzzles as requested by yourself then believe me the final selection and puzzles used will be completely beyond your limits.

Sabator - I think baseball may have misunderstood your question.
The answer is yes, the big "W" is an extra (or red herring) since the way to determine that West is part of the final coordinate has nothing to do with the letter "W" that is written on the wall.
Good luck to all with the remaining puzzles. This game is fun!
