Awaiting confirmation from dealer, but I should be on it. Interesting to see the ships huddled off the coast of France seeking cover from Ophelia.

I believe I am on the same boat. It is the Splendid Ace. Now, let’s hope she gets through the Atlantic soon as Hurricane Ophelia is in her path. Yikes!!

Do any of you guys have manuals? Or are these all PDKs?

My manual is about to board the Goodwood and leave port on Wednesday.

Thanks. Yes I hate this part. This is not my first wait. The bad thing I have missed the fall track season. But gives me time to be ready for the spring.

Learned today that my car left Emden a week earlier than planned, so it is on the Splendid Ace. Projected arrival in JAX is now 10/20, with dealer delivery date now 11/6. Besides the uncertainty due to weather, just to keep the suspense level sufficiently high, last reported position update from the ship was 2 days ago. Hope all is well on the high seas.

Manual, by the way.

Cheers,
Mike

Mine is on the Columbia Highway as well. Due into port at Rhode Island around 10-23-17.

Hope that the hurricane doesn't delay the vessel too much.

Default Columbia Highway

Any updates on the Columbia Highway position?

Looks like it was lingering off the coast of Spain for a couple of days.

Unfortunately I have not been able to find any news. The services that provide exact location all want a subscription charge and i’m Not doing that for 1 week or so. Anybody that can pin down landing date in Davisville will tell us if the Columbia is on track. It was supposed to land there 10/21 originally.
