"...a three hour tour..."

Another easy one today.

"Sailing, sailing,
Over the bounding main,
For many a stormy wind shall blow
Ere Jack comes home again!"

Very nice Kate!. I wish i was there !

Indeed, Sotir! UP 43 with basics, and the dual choice in b1 is resolved: if b1=6, then f5=6,f8=9, c7=9, and no 9 in the bottom left box. So b1=9, and UP 81

Looks like fun! Thanks, Kate!

The vessel is a little small, so it's a bit of a stretch, but I'll do it anyway:

Love... Exciting and new... come aboard... we've been expecting you... the Looooove Boooooat (c'mon everyone, join in!) :)

I made it to UP43 today.But then got attracted by g2=6 (to avoid the 17 AUR);UP59.Then f7=6 (to avoid the 59 AUR);UP60.Still no breakthrough!Then found Jyrky's b1=9.Unusual for one forcing chain to trump two AURs.

A lovely classic wooden boat.

I found the unique rectangles - I like uniqure rectangles - I understand them! I'm still working on chains.

I found Column f holds the breakpoint for the 4569 pairs.

11:00, another easy one today. all.

Start at 22
Simple deductions to 25
Note triple 457 at abc6 eliminate possibilities
Note triple 348at ghi4 eliminate possibilities
Up to 32 (check 8s3s4s)… Note pair 69 at b15 eliminate possibilities
Note triple 167 at ghi2 eliminate possibilities
Note pair 45at ac2 eliminate More...

As an easy one it is a good starter for beginners. I think that Jyrki has the simpler solution.

Jyrki's idea:

1) Start at 22, basic techniques to UP=43
2) (9): a4 = c4 - f5 = f8, => a8 <> 9. UP=81
