Guess I'll start Page 2. Gonna review, but I think I'm on shore.

EDIT: I'm convinced. Submitted.

Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.

Not yet ashore, but having ascertained the mechanism I will bet my bank account that we'll be getting a notice next week of multiple answers accepted.

ETA: Finally got the one I think must be intended after fixing my grid.

I believe I'm on the beach, but like previous posters, not 100%. Still and all, G&T me.

I am in awe of Matt Gaffney's ability to construct such puzzles. Ashore and ready for a nice Father's Day weekend with golf and baby sitting my granddaughter!

Not a solid click, but on shore with an answer I can stake a claim to.

Got it, maybe. Not 100 percent sure. Think I'll hold onto this for a while.

On the beach. Answer submitted. I have questions, though.
Happy to give nudges. If you notice I've solved, please tell me about avenues you've explored so I can nudge you in the right direction and not off a cliff.
