Just got around to this, but the title is giving me flashbacks to a certain PGW puzzle!

Okay, pressure's off now. My new Irish pub opened today at 4, and trivia starts up (outside) at a local brewery at 6:30. Gave this a quick look, but...well, the Guinness is still one, but the beach is going to have to wait. Save me a spot!

Ashore - meta came quicker than the grid

Got it. Had the answer before I saw all the reasons I was right.

I realize that the Peggy Lee thing violates my caution about what's "obvious," but I got this one immediately. Then again, there was a sorta similar mechanism from Matt some while ago that I totally missed.

Sarah Who? I found the grid hard this week. Got scabs from scratching my head, and I still can't figure out what 60D means.
Still aboard ship, skipper. Not a beach in sight.
