Official Rules Update and FAQ (Draft versions 1.01 - June 21)

Errata in rules for beaches.

From 2.01.9:
Beach is treated as ordinary clear terrain for all purposes. Exception: GEVs may move through a beach hexside from land to water, or vice versa, without ending the turn at the edge of the water. If a road or railroad passes through the beach hex, a GEV may move from road/RR to water or vice versa and get a road bonus for that phase, if and only if it passes through the beach hex side.

I would change this to:

it's possible (as evidenced by recent BGG conversations) for this to be misunderstood.
