As usual when I get to the end of a Nancy Drew game, it gets harder. I put new coordinates in after talking to Hilga. I found the 5 cairns and menu etc etc and put them in but the last three numbers are always different than what I have typed. Anyway, I am going in circles and finally looked at WT. I am suppose to find a Zap waterproof transmitter floating somewhere and I am not finding it and I also could not get to the buoy with the # 10 on it. I kept drowning. What am I doing wrong or leaving out? I find the new waypoint on my GPS but I can't get to it. Help

Those are the numbers I put in and what I forgot to tell you was the white flag shows up in the middle of the water. Is that the right area and also, the one buoy I cannot get to is the #10> How come I can't get to that one? That may be why and yet I do have the coordinates in right. I even put them in twice from a save. What is going on? Should I keep moving around but it seems like I did it for hours last night and I was not finding the new waypoint/ Is the flag, new waypoint in the middle area of the water? Help

Hi Renee, If that white flag appeared only after you entered the new co-ordinates, then it's probable that's the location you need to head for to find the transmitter. Try moving towards the flag again. After each move, check your GPS to see if you are heading in the right direction or away from the flag, and adjust your direction accordingly. This method really helped me when I played the game.

Thanks Rushes that is exactly what I was doing but I did it for a couple of hours and I would end up anywhere but near that flag. There has to be something else that I am doing wrong. I am so desparate that I about to ask someone to please give me a save right there where I would pick up the transmitter. I keep drowning and it hasn't been any fun to keep doing it again and again. Do you remember if the flag was in the middle of the lake? That is where mine is. Thanks
I finished the game. This time I went in and the very first time I took out the kayak and followed the white flag, I found it right away. I did absolutely nothing different from last night, go figure. I had to repeat a few things since I kept getting caught but the game is done and now on to Shadow Ranch.........as soon as I finish Dark Fall Thanks for your help
