Good luck to all with the grid and meta
Sorry I missed most of Tuesday's get together. I was spending time with my wife.

I can tell by the construction this is going to be an easy one - granted I'll never solve it - but I can tell this was meant to be like a KAS 1 or 2.

I disagree at this point, though I can't confirm since I'm not on shore. Eleven posts in the first hour suggests to me it's going to be another low solve rate.

Onshore, hopefully starting a new streak. Very well-constructed and elegant puzzle.
