You'll have to buy an upgrade at one of the ship tracking for satellite updates. Otherwise the last you'll hear of it is when it passes the Azores until it gets to the East Coast, and within terrestrial tracking. I didn't bother with that, so I'm not sure how often they update even with it.
I will check back when it gets close to the Rhode Island port.
Did you get yours yet Gordon? How many days at the port?

Mine hit Jax on 1/20, was cleared for transport on 1/22, made a truck 1/26, and was delivered to dealer the same day. I picked it up on 1/27. There was no surprise on the truck time. The dealer gets all their deliveries on Fridays.

The Pegasus Highway shows load ready on 2/16 and arriving Benicia 28 March
There is also the Gravity Highway on 2/6 arriving 11 March. Mine got on the boat earlier than the dealer expected. Maybe you will have the same luck and get on the Gravity Highway

Woo hoo my boat made it to Rhode Island. Hoping it is in Jacksonville and the car is on the ground Wednesday. Getting super anxious now! Dreaming of driving by the end of next week. That may be optimistic but maybe I will be lucky.

Boat pulling into Jax at 0200 Thursday morning. Car should be on the ground in the morning.
Hope it gets processed through the port quickly. Dealer says normal is 7-10 days. My dealer is in Atlanta so should not be on a truck very long. The anticipation at this point is killing me! So excited.

I followed my 2015 Carrera S from Emden to San Diego in Fall 2014 using the free tracking. It does get lost crossing from the Azores to Puerto Rico for about 5 days as only coastal tracking station monitoring show up. There is another internet system that actually has video of the Panama Canal locks to see your car's ship go through.

So my car is on its way home.
Boarded VK on 3/21 on its way to DVV and then JAX.
Does anyone know if these boats works 24/7?
if they get to DVV on Sat 03:00, would the cars be offloaded on Sat and will the boat leave same day or Sun?
or would they have to wait for a 9-5 Mon 3/5?
im sure there are members here that had a boat come to or through DVV over the weeknd, right?

My car updated to V810-ready for transport on Tuesday. Hoping it will be at the dealer any day now!!

They go 7 days a week. When the boat docks in DVV the departure time and arrival time for Jax will update on the marine tracker site. My boat ended up holding outside the port in Jax for about 18 hours before it was actually able to pull in. I would guess that was due to another boat at the port or traffic in the area. That was the only deviation in the schedule. It was only in DVV about 10 hours. I thought that was pretty quick in and out.

So it did 10H in DVV on what day was that?

I hunted around the links posted above (thanks for that, Keadog!) but didn't find the reference to Benicia on 28 March. The current destination is "CAHAL" (which I assume is Halifax, Nova Scotia where the ship is currently circling off the coast). Can you share where you saw the Benicia arrival date?

My SA just let me know my newest car is onboard the Pegasus Highway - the order was placed in early Nov and I've been remarkably patient for a long while, but now I'm starting to develop some excitement symptoms...

This is a great thread - finally its my turn. My car entered Emden on 3/2 and there are three ships scheduled for San Diego in the next several weeks. So here's my question:
Looking at the Ro-Ro schedule below, why is it that the two San Diego departures, 3/8 and 3/27 both show expected arrival dates earlier than the departure dates? Any guesses?
I'm hoping my car makes the Taurus Leader on 3/8, but doubtful it would arrive San Diego on 3/7. I'm generally an optimist, but...

Those ships perhaps have a flux capacitor installed.
