I hope I have now resolved the issues identified plus those I came across whilst looking at this again.
Fixed dialogue with greenford commander about warehouse.
Changed apothecary/Jack Sparrow dialogues. (still to put a note in walkthrough)
Tested @Jack Rackham's fix for constant looping and (after further consultation) have left the puzzle set without spurious dialogues if you give up (so you could do it later in theory). I also intend to add some hints under spoiler wraps for the hotel piece and perhaps a bit for the end walkthrough in the wiki.
Fixed a couple of instances of wrong dialogue occurring with unusual pathways through the quest.
Interestingly @Fluen 's save was using crew ashore not officers and they re-appear in Cartagena (without your ship) and in the attic if doing it later. I've not fixed that that for now.
My games is currently sept 2020 but I doubt any affected file has changed?
