On shore, even though I'm still backsolving one of the pieces....
Edited to add: I was desperate to get onto the first page; my claim of solving above is correct, and now I figured out that missing piece, so I'm 100% sure. This one made me sweat a bit, and it has the even-more-dreaded pairs of numbers in parentheses.

On shore. Nice construction here.
Now back to the current MEOW, whose final step has so far eluded me.
