I always thought that boat unloading to delivery would be 7-10 days but I see others in different threads being pushed back almost three weeks!

There continues to be a disconnect among the marine tracking services as to when the boat will dock. Fleetmon expects docking on 12/9 while the others still show the original 12/11 ETA. In any event it should be pulling in this week! GETTING CLOSE.

Just in time - Your posts are better than any of the tracking services! You are making it very easy to stay on top of the arrival dates. I'm doing a road trip to FL in January to the Streamsong golf resort so I can get my 2K miles over before I start tracking the car in February/March. If you're in the area, we should get some pictures of our two Felicity Ace cars together.

I would be delighted. I understand from some of the guys that I play with that both courses at Streamsong are gorgeous. At some point in time we can PM and do some planning. Sounds like it will be a good photo op!

Ahead of schedule!!! Marine Traffic is reporting that Port Brunswick is expecting the Felicity to moor on 12/9 @ 7:51 pm. That is nearly a day and a half ahead of schedule. Our cars should be on land by net morning!

The Cougar Ace moored this AM in Brunswick, one day ahead of our boat, the Felicity Ace. If there is a throng of P cars in the Cougar I could easily see our cars being delayed out of Brunswick. Maybe that is why delivery for some of us has been pushed back to 12/26. That would be a solid two weeks after our cars are on land. Oh well...

Maybe they will move Cougar's cars to the back of the lot to make room for Felicity's immediate offload. Then, ours would be the first to load on the transporters.

Jimmermd I assume from your post that your car is in the boat. Correct? Another GT3?

I like your optimism and wish you are correct, however....

Ok boys, here is the question: did it sink? Taken over by pirates? Abducted by extraterrestrials?

The boat is now two hours overdue in Brunswick. It has disappeared from every screen I look at. Fleetmon pushed back mooring till tomorrow, Marine traffic says its overdue, and Vwessel Finder still shows it in the Celtic Sea with its original date of 12/11 which is downright impossible!

I have no idea!!

Pheeeew! The boat reemerged! It now looks like it will moor today around 1:00 pm. Maybe the boat cut through the Bermuda Triangle as it appears to have been sailing south of of the island. That where everything went nuts. Maybe there is some truth to the lore. In any event our cars should be offloaded pretty soon. Hoping!

Felicity is now moored! Hey hurry up and get those cars down!!!

Gentlemen this is the final stretch. For me and I guess for almost all of you, it has been a long journey. I got on the list back in February. Had to endure the stop sale and got an allocation in September. So after nearly 10 months the car is almost here. I say almost because until delivery these few days will seem endless. Hopefully we will all be rewarded when we get to drive our cars. Let's now see when we get our hands on the steering wheels. Good luck!

Thought the ship was most certainly lost in the Bermuda Triangle. Even held off on ordering my torque wrench for the center lock wheels. What a relief that she is moored. It's going to be a merry Christmas after all...
