Default Ship Tracking

The damn wait is killing me! Aside from that, the car is on the Dover Highway has left Emden and is headed Stateside. The dealer (Austin, TX) said that the car will arrive via Houston, but I see the manifest stating Halifax right now. Any of y'all have a way of finding out estimated arrival in Houston?

Thanks as always for any help! Can't freaking wait...

Your ship will likely stop in Canada, Rhode Island, Georgia...and then Houston. Porsche has delivery hubs in Davisville, RI, Brunswick, GA, and Houston. And, there may be other marques of cars on your ship, thus the Halifax, NS, Canada port call.
Fast car on a slow boat. The irony runs deep.

I just asked this question on another thread before I saw this one. If the car has been delivered via ED, can it still be tracked by the dealership? I was told no by my dealership...

That sheet is on the shippers website. It doesn't update, and needs to be updated. My car supposedly left Emden today on the Crystal Ace, which isn't listed here. To further confuse things, the Mermaid Ace has been decommissioned. Using my PI skills, I do believe crystal replaced Mermaid many years ago...

The next stop for Crystal Ace is Bremerhaven.

it doesn't update as far as I saw... once your car is on that boat, you can go to http://www.marinetraffic.com/en/ais/home/
and type your ships name in the top left search box, then go to live update and it will show you where the boat is when its close to land. it will also show and updated eta to its next port...


This is when mine was about to enter the port in houston:

Santa won't come down the chimney till you get back in bed and go to sleep.
Definitely the wait is a long night. Mine's headed to San Diego-via Panama Canal- Scheduled to be in canal the first of Nov-- which I'm guessing puts the car's arrival in Bend at no earlier than 25th of Nov at best.

Mark--Small world. I like the fact that with your's headed to Bend as well it adds to a "critical mass" ( I know 2 is not exactly that but hey it's 100% more than 1) and maybe will speed up the time to "hitch" a ride with a transport. Mine's a GTS Cab, what's yours ? And yes I hope to see you in Bend--
