Default Desperately....Eternal Ace

By process of deduction I determined that my car on the Eternal Ace. My dealer has confirmed that it is "On Vessel," but he doesn't have a vessel name yet. The Eternal Ace is the only ship headed from Emden to Brunswick for several weeks, so I'm betting on her. She leaves Emden tomorrow, the date my car is scheduled to leave. According to VW's shipping schedule she is due in the Port of Brunswick on 11/04. Hopefully she see's fair seas and light winds for the next 10 days. I'll track her periodically and post the results for others who might be shipmates. I have attached VW Logistic's October shipping schedule for anyone who is interested. One step closer...

Congratulations! What was your completion date? My car was suppose to finish 10/17 but I haven't gotten any updates from SA. Brunswick is also my arrival/PDI port.

Mine was completed on 10/15 and it got to port pretty quickly. If your car is coming to a FL dealer I would bet its on the same boat. Here is the latest tracking info for my car (from last week). Your dealer should be able to provide you the same info. Good luck!

Thank you guys. We're a little closer to a group drive. Sean, definitely let us know how the Xpel looks. I will probably schedule something with your guys for mid to late Nov.

The Eternal Ace is heading out to open sea on its way to Brunswick, right on schedule. Ten days and counting....

I don't have a print out that detailed yet but I do know my car went V300 on 10/10/2014. Estimated delivery to dealer is 12/12/2014. Is my car on Eternal Ace or perhaps the next ship??

My 2015, is on that ship too. It's been about a year including ordering and passing on a '14.

Ship last report that I can find is 10-30. It's got to be in range soon.
My Turbo took about 10 days to find its way to Atlanta once it was unloaded in Brunswick.
