A slight change in the method of counting 2 glyphs per day will result in the following satisfactory solution:
It can be shown that the text on side b is structured as a series of sequences which are 200 + 2 glyphs (or 100 + 1 days) long. Viri in Ab7-26 exemplifies a sign which was used to draw the line between an old and a new season. Therefore, the 4 glyphs Ab7-27--30 belong at the beginning of a new season. Likewise we should regard hahe in Ab2-36 as the last glyph of an old season and manu kake in Ab2-37 as the first glyph of a new season:
With Sun allotted 300 days he should have 3 of these 'seasons', the first of which probably is ending with hahe in Ab2-36. The 3rd and last will then end with viri in Ab7-26. The fully grown viri in Ab7-26 measures the distance from the little viri in Ab1-1, but the distance from the 'lopped off' viri seems to connect to kara etahi:
