volvo the hunt, all eights but one will see?

Question

Has anyone figured out how to get the final clue? Obviously you are supposed to use the card with eight eyes, but I cannot get the right word. Can anyone give me a clue?

Answer 1

The keyword for Port Royal is obtained by using the eight eyed card and placing the upper left most eye over the s from the location hollow trees and turning the card at a 45 degree angle (approximate) towards the serpent.
The letters shown in the eyes are:
Upper Left - s (from hollow treeS)
Upper Right - s (from Six islands)
2nd Row Left - s (from shallowS)
2nd Row Right - s (from six iSlands)
3rd Row Left - s (from horSe bay)
3rd Row Right - s (from six islandS)
Bottom Left - s (from South cape)
Bottom Right - t (from serpenT)

Reading from left to right, top to bottom, you arrive at: ssssssst

To solve this puzzel you must go back through the previous locations and find the obvious letters and numbers written somewhere.

1) Sargasso Sea - Nothing
2) Bermuda - 2 on box lid, 5 on plate
3) Madiera - 5 on door, 8 on wine cask
4) Tropic of Cancer - N
5) Saint Helena - 7
6) Saint Mary - 7
7) Pulau Jong - 1
8) Diomede - Nothing
9) Isla Mas A Tierras - 3 on rocks
10) Cape Horn - Nothing
11) Cozumel - W
12) Isla Culebra - Nothing
13) Port Royal - Nothing

Using the numbers derived from each of the locations (and the order in which they were obtained, if more than one number was obtained, such as on Bermuda and Madiera)

2 - Bermuda
5 - Bermuda
5 - Madiera
8 - Madiera
N - Tropic of Cancer
7 - Saint Helena
7 - Saint Mary
1 - Pulau Jong
3 - Isla Mas A Tierras
W - Cozumel

Put them together and you arrive at:
2558N7713W which will take you... somewhere.

Answer 2

I see what you mean, xo1inamillionxo, but the answer I came up with is very similar to something else that has already been used before in the Hunt. Are you feeling the deja vu too, or am I barking up the wrong tree?

EDIT: Well, I wasn't totally up the wrong tree, now that I've figured it out. Here's a valuable hint: you're not looking for a real word this time, so-to-speak.
