:( Getting nervous. Still on the ship and banging my head into so many rabbit holes... I'm pretty sure Bugs Bunny is my new bestie.

Just started an hour ago and the comments are about what I expected. When is the Last Call Zoom again? I may need it...

Lost at sea in Nicaragua and the surf is rough. I’m so stuck on my initial path that I can’t see anything else…

I’m still lost at sea. Haven’t given up completely though.

Still on the ship. In Chicago for a funeral, so I haven't had a lot of time to look at it. Maybe tomorrow?

Looks like I'll be at the ship's bar for the duration. I have rarely been so befuddled by a WSJ puzzle.
Keep the whiskey sours coming, Isaac.

I've tried really hard to make it the noted American car I want it to be, but so far I'm spinning my wheels. I feel like I see where to start but not where to go. There's still time.

I give up. I've been at sea for three days. I'm cold, I'm wet and my fingers have turned into prunes. Nudge, please.

This doesn't seem to be my preferred type of meta (of course I may be wrong since I haven't solved it) but that thought along with a lack of knowledge about cars and the creator....well not sure I'm going to spend too much time on this one

My sailing career is over and I’ve dragged my poor tired carcass onto the beach, ready to join these carousing Muggle friends. Wouldn’t have happened if not for a careful nudge.
No carping from me- I know scarcely anything about cars, but was able to carry the ball across the finish line once I saw the 10 carat meta mechanism.
Cabana Boy, I’ll have a Sidecar please.

I think I'm ashore but it may be a sandbar...

Reporting in, lost at sea. 🌊 🏊‍♀️

Still working on it, off and on. Beautiful 80-degree weather yesterday and today, so being outside is a priority!

8PM Eastern time on Sunday is the traditional time for the Last Call Zoom. A couple others have said they plan to be there, so I’d say it’s on for tonight.

Admittedly haven't spent much time on this since the initial grid solve, but this may be one I just don't click with. How does one join the Last Call Zoom... just in case I'm free at 8?

At the top of this page (under the menu icon if you’re on a phone) there’s a link for the Muggle Zoom Room. Just click that.

If you don’t already have the Zoom app installed on your computer/pad/phone, it should take you through that.

The room is always open, so you can start early to be sure you have it working.

Just click on the “Muggle Zoom Room” at the top of the page. I guess you need the zoom app too…

You also must be signed in to XWord Muggles to see the link/icon.

This is from a phone, but it's similar on a computer and below Isaac's photo:
