..... and a longer solution is:

xy-wing 2-36 with vertex 26 inr3c7,
xy-wing 6-89 with vertex 69 in r4c8 and pseudocell 89 in row7, plus a pincer transport,
ER 6 with hinge in box3,
xy-wing 1-38 with vertex 18 in r1c4 and extended pincer 13,
xy-wing 2-89 with vertex 29 in r7c8 and extended pincer 89.
