Anyone know what's up with the Shanghai Highway? She was supposed to make it to Halifax yesterday, and now it looks like she's sitting offshore, not headed to port? It looks like they had to re-route due to strong winds in the North Atlantic, but now it's looking like it's going to be delayed making it around. Does anyone have any insight into whether this is a real problem, or (as my wife suspects) just me finding something to worry about?

In bad weather, or if the port is full, they do not go into port. It happens. Nothing to worry about.

What does it mean if your vessel falls off this list? SWAN ACE was on this list for week 45, now not on week46.

Congratulations, now get out and enjoy her! Will you be turning to HRE for the summer setup as well?

As of this morning, my 911 C2 is still scheduled to leave Emden on 11/23, which means it would miss the Goodwood, which is now apparently scheduled to leave 11/17-19. My 911 has been at Emden since 11/2, two weeks on the nose.

God bless,

Since at least November 6th, not sure exactly what date it got there but my original estimate had exit production and entry to Emden on the same date. My car exited production on October 30th.

Mine exited production on 10/30, also. So they seem to be on the same track. Is yours also going to JAX?
