Found to require some guessing by Gator.

nice. guessed it from the title.

after using edge logic on the 9 clues in rows 1 and 55 (and subsequent line logic) you get to where gator mentioned

two-way logic in r29c9/11 and r29c15/17 lets you place dots in r28c6-8 and r28c18-20 (it does not appear to be much help but this step is crucial)

then edge logic on the 2 clues in both c6 and c20 now helps (whereas before the previous step it didnt help) with subsequent line logic (this may actually be where gator mentioned he got to)

the final step is actually just simple edge logic on either of the 2 clues in row 27 and the rest solves with line logic

nice puzzle
no guessing

Found to be logically solvable by gator.

Thanks bugaboo!
