Distant Edge Logic on the 11 in r1 (vs r3) means c1-2, c48-50 must be white (or there would be a block of two on the left, or three on the right in row 3)

DEL 11 r1 (vs r4) = c3-10 white (or there'd be a block of four in r4)
DEL 11 r1 (vs r4) = c11-12 white (or there'd be a block of three in r4)
DEL 11 r1 (vs r5) = c40-47 white (or there'd be a block of one in r5)
DEL 11 r1 (vs r4) = c34-39 white (or there'd be a block of three in r4)
DEL 11 r1 (vs r4) = c27-33 white (or there'd be a block of 1 in r4)

LL

2-way 2 r6 = r2c7 white

LL to finish
