...Storm Warning... . From 38n to 44n between 37w and 46w and within 300 nm W quadrant winds 40 to 50 kt. Seas 18 to 32 ft...highest in SW quadrant. Elsewhere over forecast waters from 36n to 46n E of 47w...within 180 nm W and N of front N of 46n and within 180 nm E of front from 33n to 36n winds 25 to 40 kt. Seas 9 to 22 ft...highest S and SW of low.

That would explain them hauling *** to the southwest! They are already south of Halifax, so they will have to cut back north after they get out of this mess! Come on Fremantle!

The Fremantle has been stuck in some crazy seas for 2 days. 30 foot waves.

They are pointed in the wrong direction, I assume trying to fight the waves, at a snail like 6.5 knots.

Don't you worry Sean, you have nothing to worry about. We're all excited and cheering her on. Can't wait to see the pics.

Well Sean first off congrats on the GT4, what color did you get? It has the new auto blip feature so no need to heel and stinky toe.

Also Somalians "Pirates" have been reported in the area, "I am the Captain"

But look at this way if the salt water, storm, Pirates, Bermuda Triangle, dealer trade to some crazy mountain goat in the hills of TN doesn't get in the way I heard those GT4's are awesome track trainers.

Either way congrats man.

Yours truly
GT3 RS owner.

See that was the problem Sean, Fremantle-Highway needed a storm to get it headed in the right direction.

It's turning to go back to Germany. Had to dump all cargo to survive the storm. Don't worry they will build you another car arriving December.

I am confident that around noon tomorrow the FH will be pulling in to Halifax.


Which does me absolutely no good! . I'm so unbelievably excited. Cannot wait to see it for the first time!!!
