The last glyph in line Cb9 has number 230:

glyph numbers are counted from Cb1-1
Cb9-25 Cb9-26 Cb9-27 Cb9-28 Cb9-29 Cb9-30 (230)
Cb10-1 (231) Cb10-2 Cb10-3 Cb10-4 Cb10-5 Cb10-6 (236)
Cb10-7 Cb10-8 Cb10-9 Cb10-10 (240) Cb10-11 Cb10-12

4 lunar months remain beyond Cb9-30 to the end of side b. 348 - 230 = 118 = 4 * 29.5. But if Cb10-6 is located at 8 * 29.5 days, Hatinga Te Kohe must come 6 days beyond the end of side b.

Ca1-1 (349) Ca1-2 Ca1-3 Ca1-4 Ca1-5 Ca1-6 (354)
Ca1-7 Ca1-8 Ca1-9 Ca1-10 Ca1-11 Ca1-12 (360)

Or should we let side b be a separate cycle, which returns to Cb1-1 after Cb14-19?

Cb14-14 Cb14-15 Cb14-16 Cb14-17 Cb14-18
Cb14-19 (348) Cb1-1 Cb1-2 Cb1-3 Cb1-4
Cb1-5 Cb1-6 (354) Cb1-7 Cb1-8 Cb1-9
Cb1-10 Cb1-11 Cb1-12 (360) Cb1-13 Cb1-14

It is not easy to decide, but Cb1-3 indicates a solstice rather than the 12th kuhane station.

Nevertheless, the eyes betray a turnaround between glyph 236 and 237:

Cb10-6 (236) Cb10-7

I guess this is a horizontal version of what we can see at bottom in Cb9-30 and in Ca7-1:

Cb9-30 (230) Ca7-1 (169)
