It's going to Jacksonville, so I'm curious to know if Lake Wanaka, otherwise I'm looking at SFL Conductor or Siem Aristotle, based on the last official VW schedule posted here.

The Lake Wanaka info is from the Port of Davisville website as compared to Emden on Vessel Tracker. Link is here: https://noradinc.com/davisville-berthing-schedule/ and screenshot below. No special access …

I can only get onto the Davisville calendar about half the times I try. Other times it has an inescapable CAPTCHA loop. I’ve been watching it for a while so I have been able to observe patterns.






And fwiw, “he” is a she. We’re rare, but there are a few women who really love our cars and know how to drive them.

Hi CatVaux, Thanks for the clarification and sorry about my pronoun assumption! I thought the other Emden schedules you've posted required special access. I did a Google search and Port of Jacksonville has a website with a calendar too. It only goes out to August 24. The only ship name I recognize is Siem Aristotle, which is estimated to arrive on August 12.

Supreme Ace docked overnight in Baltimore, after taking a canal across Delaware into the upper Chesapeake that I didn’t even know existed.

No worries. It’s pretty common on RL. It just kinda cracks me up.

Nope. Looks like I did miss the boat...

EDIT: but ETA in Emden for Lake Wanaka is today!

several people have reported that happening (you get a new port arrival date) on the day your car is loaded - and that happened to me as well; it got to Emden 7/26, but then updated to show 8/4 for that date - the same date it confirmed my car was loaded onto Siem Confucius. So stay tuned, you may be about to get confirmation through TYD that you’re on board a boat.

I just checked and the same thing happened to me. My Arrival to Emden date moved from 7/6 to 8/10. My Dealer Arrival Date moved in a week to 9/23 from 9/30.

Hmm. You're going to Jacksonville FL too, aren't you? My car is supposed to arrive in Jacksonville on 9/2 and at the dealer in FL on 9/9. When is your car supposed to leave Emden?

Interesting to see a whole new group of people go through the same things we did. How fun.

Anyone know when the factory shutdown ends?

TYD shows a CPO date of 8/26 which might be possible (production started late July) if the shutdown ends in mid-August otherwise is just another piece of useless info from the app.
