That's the only part i'm confuzed about - what do you mean I22 coorisponds wiht 6:00
There are 6 Xs on the map (see the map room), and each X is one of the coordinates. If you consider how the Xs are placed relative to each other, it's obvious which coordinates go with which Xs. Then if you take each X in order along the path of the ship (1:00, 2:00...), I22 is the 6:00 X.

There is only 1 starboard view with no portholes and 2 of the 3 port side pictures feature port holes. How do you explain/interpret that? Check chapters 1 and 2 or view the few pages of the last thread and my theory.
Take a closer look at the pictures and consider where the railing is (see Bonju's account). The railing appears to be in the middle of the ship, and doesn't include the railing lining either of the decks (one more reason: if it included the decks, then it would overlap with "aft deck") . The middle section of the ship, according to the pictures, has no portholes. (See the closeup at http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a363/ ... ropped.png )
Now that I think about it, I think both the dining room and the storeroom are also aft, towards the stern.
