Reached shore, and trusting it's the correct one following the Zoom gathering.

Ashore! Or perhaps I should say, a shore. Will spend time tomorrow searching for confirmation or expulsion back to the ship before submitting. Meanwhile, I'll have a Balvenie 12 year neat!
Good luck to all for a successful solve. If you see that I'm ashore - rare occasion of late - message me if you'd like a nudge. Be sure to include your progress so I can know better how to assist.

Sent in my answer, so I guess I am on shore.

Had it yesterday but waited.

Seemed too easy which probably means i am on the wrong shore.

Dewar's on the Rocks later.

Reporting on shore, after the traditional family zoom session with my two kids.

Much as I love doing the meta, I prefer the fact that it brings my kids to a weekly zoom session. We do like competing to be the first to figure out the metanism. But they have been quick to solve lately that we get to chat more. So I don't mind!

Traveling next two weekends in Spain/Portugal, so I'm not sure whether I'll be able to report in.

Yes, that's a brag. Life is good.

Like many others here I am on shore after a tough grid for me. Was over thinking the answer and decided to just go with my first thought yesterday.

Solved, (at least I think so).

Super tough grid but relatively easy row ashore I think.

I'm ashore after a long time on the boat! Maybe on this body of water?

Ashore like many others with the straightforward answer, still wish I had a clear confirmation from the grid.

OK, I'll just go ahead and claim "Ashore."

Wishes to all for lovely spring seasons/holidays.

But do be aware of possible pitfalls --

I am reasonably confident I have found the shore. Thought I saw a rabbit, but it wasn't there.
