 Play this puzzle online at the Daily Sudoku site
 
 Yes- two of the four 239 XY-Wings appear to do it in 1 but not
 the ones pivoted at r2c1 or r3c3. In fact the two that solve it both
 pivot in r1c2. It also looks as though there should be W wings as well
 but I lost interest before finding any. But for a nice chain how about
 If r3c8<>3 r9c8=9 r7c7=4 r8c8=3. So by elimination r123c9<>3 stte.
