Looks like our ships are racing. Mine is heading to Halifax first though.

Is the Glovis Supreme finally through the Canal? The site I have been looking at shows it still there but looks like it is going through now.

Thank you for the updates.

For the East Coasters, the Siem Confucius just passed Cove Point, MD, about 60 miles south of the Port of Baltimore! Can’t believe my car is finally almost here!

It went through the first locks and then anchored. No idea what is up with the canal these days. 🤣

If you are patient enough you can see the actual ship live while it is crossing a couple of the docks at the Panama Canal: Webcam.

I was in Panama for work a couple of years ago, and got to see the Canal in person - it was amazing to see such a large ship squeeeeeeze through, what a feat of engineering.

The Siem Confucius seems to be sitting off the Port of Baltimore. Hopefully it will dock soon. My garage is ready and waiting!!!

@chriswd62 - nice garage! I think I see some Obsessed Garage stuff in there. your new car is going to have a great place to sleep.

I really want to get Swisstrax for my garage, but I am hesitant on the installation front....

My time in the waiting room grows short! TYD shows the car completing port processing on Friday, but whether that has any bearing on when it gets on a truck (besides being a necessary pre-condition)…no idea. I leave town for business Tuesday afternoon, so I figure it’ll show up the second I am headed to the airport. lol

This is great info. I just changed the vessel name to Hestia Leader (my ship) and plugged the Long/Lat numbers into Google Maps and there she was!
Making 17-knot progress, but staying afloat. 😱 Thanks for posting this.

Thanks! Yes, there are a few Obsessed Garage items in there and should be a suitable place to store the new GT4. I actually went with Race Deck Free-Flow, and am pretty happy with it. Installation was super easy using a tile cutter. When we eventually move into a bigger place, I plan to do a full Obsessed Garage buildout with SwissTrax.
