Approach to Solving Today’s Strands
The current puzzle appears to revolve around a pirate theme. Let’s delve deeper.
A few unrelated words are popping up—WOLF, GREAT, BORE, BEAT, BOAT, and SHUNT—but nothing quite connects yet.
Ah! BOUNTY appears. 🔵 Perhaps we’re looking for treasure-related terms?
I’ve identified SHIPS (suggestive of pirates) and CHIPS (like the cookie brand), though neither fits our theme. FLOWER and FLOWERS are unrelated as well. This is a challenging puzzle.
Spotted BEAGLE horizontally in the center—great find! 🔵
TITANIC turns up too. 🔵 Wait—could these all be famous ship names, perhaps the RMS Titanic?
VICTORY appears in the bottom right corner. 🔵 It feels like I’m grasping at straws—I’m not too familiar with notable ships.
What are your thoughts so far?
