I'm in the Okasankaar (marsh world) level. I think I've done nearly
everything that needs doing there, including getting the Mon.
But I need to fix the boat light in order for the leader to be
convinced not to catch fish for the soldiers.

The trouble is, I first heard of this quest at the beginning of the
level and I've done so much stuff running back and forth between
Motazaar (dried-up mountain world), Talanzaar (desert world),
and Okasankaar that I've completely forgotten anything that
might have been said about the location of the boat light.

Is it at the top of Cyana, Okasankaar's central city? I'm having
a hard time getting to the top of that mountainous business in the
middle of the city. The 2 walkthroughs I found don't mention
where the lighthouse is. They just say jump between the
platforms. What platforms? I tried jumping around on the
mountainous notches, and Cutter ended up doing that funny
little dance on his butt where he's scrabbling to keep from
falling off the edge - for all infinity - or until I load a saved game.

BTW, great game, I'm currently playing it for about the 5th time
through.

Ok, first off, you were told about the boat light while at the dock
(where the two boats are). If you are on the dock, looking out to sea,
and turn right, you should see a series of platforms. Note that, there
are other platforms on the other side of the city, which have boards
between them, but these platforms do not have boards between them,
because Kroax ordered the soldiers to remove them.

More spoilers below...

If you ask people about the boat light, you find that you need to go
back to Okriana to the helidium carver there, who tells you what he
needs...

Further spoilers below (in detail)....

You need to go to Motazaar and go to the mining area north of the rock
crusher, get a large, blue piece of helidium from the lead miner in that
group (he will be the only one working, if you have rescued the Shamaz),
take it to the helidium carver in Okriana, and have it made into a
replacement boat light, take the boat light to Cyana and jump from one
platform to the next, until you get to the boat light. Swap boat
lights, talk to the leader, go back to Okriana and take the burned-out
boat light to the helidium carver for a bonus.
