Indeed, Dosh, Argos can be whipped at size 5, build a WB and still be faster than Sparta with GPP.
Circumnavigation allows us to get NFish one more turn sooner than before (on T99) and WB gets there in time. We also save one more worker turn (half of unnecessary road) because worker is not chopping faster than NFish expansion.
Trireme can come from Corinth. We could settle South fish first (T101) because we can settle it without Trireme (if we stumble upon a galley, settler can be unloaded and picked up by Trireme+galley 2T later if our galley loses the battle). When SFish border pop, warrior can be transported to the West for fogbusting. We can also settle Eastern city (T103).
Now off to deal with headache and then think about strategy. I generally agree that Willem should be dealt with first and then we can attack with 3 stacks (if Utrecht stack from late reinforcements can be called a stack).
Edit:
We could start thinking about Argos building workers for chopping the West and maybe for buying a task...
