I must have done something very wrong. I tried the kayak event by myself a few times but could not get to one of the buoys so I went on to other things but then saw where I had to finish the kayak race in order to get the password to go mine gold. So, I used the walkthrough -- I got all the buoys lit but when I hit the stop button at the end nothing happened (I was supposed to get a phone message w/password.) I went back 4 saved games hoping to start it over but nothing happens when I get back to the pier & push the stop button. (And yes, I did push the "start" and had the timer going) I hate to go back so far that I have to repeat the other tasks I completed. Yet I can't enter the password (I saw it on the walkthrough) because it knows I haven't finished off the kayak race. Sorry this is so long and whiney but I'm frustrated! I so appreciate ya'll's help!

I will send you a saved game after Nancy has won the kayak challenge. I believe there will be a message on your phone that you should read (from Pacific Run). It's a save for Amateur level of difficulty.

Okay, I sent a saved game to the email address you have in your profile and the email got returned to me as undeliverable. Could you please check the email address listed in your profile and see if it needs updating? I can try re-sending the save after that.

Oh gosh -- I apologize! I have not updated my profile since forever and we've moved 3 times since then! My current e-mail address has now been verified --Will the fact that the saved game is Amateur affect the fact I'm playing the more difficult level? I do appreciate your assistance!

I sent you a saved game for master. Please verify that it is after the race.

Thank you, thank you!!! Now, years ago I did have to get a saved game from GB but that was many Windows versions ago and things have changed so I wasn't sure -- but your instructions worked to a T -- Now, on with the challenges!
