I think there’s a joke about that. The moral was if you’ve got a big d*** you don’t need a corvette.

My 992 GTS left the factory for Emden this morning. Does anyone have the updated shipping schedule? It seems that the Siem Aristotle is still in port...I wonder if it will make it on that ship before departure?

I would say probably not but it's hard to say. I feel like the least accurate part of the TYD milestone dates are leaving the factory and arriving at Port.

Same with mine. V300 and at port Emden.

I'm trying to figure out why the Supreme Ace is still at anchor and not at moor loading up cars. It supposed to be shipping out to Halifax on 3/8, but that doesn't seem likely given it is just sitting off-shore.

Maybe it's broken and they are waiting for a part from Belarus.

Looking Good - Carmine should be one of the rarer colours

Siem Aristotle is soon to depart for Halifax enroute to the US ports today or tomorrow. I doubt you'll make it.

The port was congested with Car Carrier ships all this weekend that are shipping elsewhere in the World. The last NA ship was SFL Composer which is now in the Atlantic on its way to the US.

The port was full of Car Carrier ships this past weekend and I noticed its now showing as due in Halifax on March 20th but shown in red above...meaning it will likely push out. My SA said I'm V331 and load date on ship is Mid March so looks like I'll be on Supreme Ace.
