No. It's schedule to arrive to Charleston on the 19th and hopefully Brunswick on the 20th. With some luck, I hope to get her before Thanksgiving….

I don't think the ship will make to Charleston before late Tuesday based on last position on Wed and speed of 15knts. Real issue is the PDI and upcoming holiday. Either they will get the cars out fast by the end next week or wait until after the holiday. The Florida cars could be PDI'd and out to the dealers by Friday or Saturday if they wanted to clear out customer cars before the holiday.

The ship will be in Brunswick by early AM Thursday to unload but seeing the cars before the holiday is an iffy proposition unless the PDIs are done right as they roll off on Thursday or early Friday. Not sure what the trucking schedule is for early next week either. I'd like to be wrong but I figure I'll be taking delivery the week after next.

Djcxxx, I'm with you on that! I'm not expecting to take delivery until the first week of December at the soonest. The original estimate I was given by my SA was 12/5 and by the looks of it, seems accurate

The same for my Targa.....but that was when the ship was expected to dock in Brunswick on the 28th. I am planning on delivery at Hennessy Roswell during the first week of December, but you never know.

The 0400 is UTC and on Eastern Standard Time we are 5h behind (UTC-5) so the boat should dock at 2300 tonight. Probably doesn't matter since they don't unload until the morning. Someone suggested on another thread that customer cars are given priority for PDI and delivery but who knows.
