TUD -- no matrix LED headlights, so I'm not sure why I have that extra protection. But I guess I'm happy it's there.

It somewhat looks like they have not been installed yet. Maybe they are currently constrained?

Sorry, I meant that I didn't order the matrix headlights, so that wouldn't be the reason for the extra protection.

Siem Aristotle is off the coast of Nova Scotia now and is arriving into Davisville tomorrow a few days ahead of the TYD schedule. I guess it's last call on the cruise!

Default Just left Emden - NJ bound


Just got the email that it left Emden, minutes after the Supreme Ace was on its way out of the port! Heading to NJ.
So far every step has been a few days ahead of schedule.
It's a C2 GTS to replace my 23 C2 base.
I hope others who have been waiting got on the boat as well :-)

Dang, was hoping to be on the Ace to Baltimore as I was supposed to leave on the 2nd but still no email. How long did you guys on the Ace have to wait at Emden? I've been at the port since April 17. Curious the rhyme or reason as to which cars go on which ships...

Mine arrived at the port on 4/19. Last year when I was waiting for my car to leave the port, it sat there a little over a month and 2 or 3 ships Baltimore bound left without loading my car. This year I consider myself fortunate. Maybe you'll still get the email. Otherwise, the next ship to Baltimore isn't that far off. The Siem Cicero is due to arrive in Emden in about a week and estimated to reach Baltimore on the 28th. I hope that helps!

Thank you! Will help put my expectations in perspective with what you dealt with last year. Know so many of you waited forever so a few more days/weeks is nothing.

I arrived at Emden on Apr 17. TYD had me departing Emden earlier than now but got bumped to May 7 a couple weeks ago. It would be interesting to know how they handle port logistics and scheduling. I'm guessing they take into account a lot of factors in determining which cars get loaded. I'm sure it isn't as easy as FIFO at Emden.

My car arrived at Emden on May 2 and I just received the email saying it departed the German port. The Supreme Ace is schedule to arrive to Houston (Freeport, TX) on June 2, which is almost a week ahead of the original schedule.

Lake Wanaka just docked at the port of Freeport after sitting at anchor for 2 days 10 miles off coast. Looks like those guys work half days at the port for as few ships as they move daily....
