Can't figure out something in the Finale, even with walktrough :(

I'm at that point where LeChuck pulls Guybrush under his ship. I see the keys, and I want to get them, but there's no cursor or a way to stop, as far as I can see. And after I'm on board again, I can't make LeChuck make me get under the ship again. What am I doing wrong? Is there a way to get the keys if you missed them the first time? I tried to slide down the sail from the crow's nest again, but the sail doesn't seem to be useable after the first time anymore.

I have a safegame from right before Guybrush gets keelhauled though.

    You can get pulled under the ship over and over again, but next time, before you get pulled under you should maybe talk to Elaine first.

    That's what I tried, but LeChuck always just punches Guybrush up the crow's nest.

    Your save game is probably from a couple of seconds too late. Just wait until Guybrush is punched around the whole ship and back to that same spot again.

    Then click on Elaine and
    select the option that asks her to fight LeChuck - and then just let him keel haul you
    .

    I guess you're right about my save game, it starts right when LeChuck comes up to Guybrush. :/
    For the life of my I can't figure out how to make him keel haul me a second time. From that spot he always punches me up the nest, from there I can only go down the rope, from there I land in front of the broken door again. No matter what I say to Elaine before, LeChuck just punches me up the crow's nest again. Is there something I'm missing?

    Yes. Don't slide down, and wait for LeChuck on crow's nest instead.

    I am also so stuck, I checked the WT. I have spoken to Elaine to Kill LaChuck, I put the broken door on the barrel and asked her to light the canon. I try to step on the "seesaw", but only the words "broken door" show and he won't step on it before LaChuck jumps down.......over and over.. LOL. What am I doing wrong? I have been tossed, punched and thrown around the ship a million times! LOL

    Thanks!

    Since LeChuck follows you wherever you go, he will jump down from wherever you previously stayed.
    That means, LeChuck doesn't exactly stomp on the seesaw when he jumps from crow's nest. Try to give HIM a different spot to jump.
    The spoiler below is a giveaway.
    When LeChuck launches you on the crow's nest, slide down the rope using your hook and wait for LeChuck. When he throws you to the location of the seesaw again, talk to Elaine to light the cannon, and simply click on the seesaw for once until LeChuck comes again. If the sail is not torn by you, tear it using your hook when you're on the crow's nest.

    Thank you. That's was exactly what I had done...over and over (except tear the sail...that was only once.

    Anyway, right after I posted, it worked! Thank you very much. I have played all 5 episodes. Can't wait to get it all on disks to keep for playing again sometime. :)
