Got it with a little discord nudge (Alan is the BEST!). Not submitting, since it wasn’t solo, but I’ll take a little cocktail if since the cabana boy doesn’t look TOO busy at the moment….

Ashore with a nudge
If I’ve solved and you need a nudge, you can PM me. Happy to pay it forward. ;)

@whimsy, I spotted these bunnies when we were strolling around Manteo, NC, on vacation and of course thought of you!
Good luck, fellow Muggles!

Ashore. I took a fresh look and it just came to me.

Ashore! I was trying to add an extra step. I mean, I think it was extra. Hopefully my leftover parts are like those spare pieces that haunt you after you finish putting together an Ikea bookcase. I will sleep on this before I submit, just in case.

Pretty sure I’m on shore but have not solved all parts of meta if that makes any sense.

Pretty sure I've got it. Calling myself onshore.
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.

I'm calling myself ashore.

And while I'm at it I declaring myself handsome, rich and popular. And my Nobel prize will be coming in the mail any day now.

Meanwhile I'm staring at the grid. You know, all the entries contain vowels. Is that significant?

On the shore. This required some effort, for me anyway.
