Anyone have MarineTraffic subscription and can post update of Felicity location? TYD has her stuck at Davisville but Felicity Ace set sail yesterday to Houston. TIA

Ok so it's not just me.,,
'She is about even with Virginal Beach, heading SSW at about 13 knots. No hurry it seems, She is shooting for the 5th?

Fleetmon free subscription has satellite tracking

Looks like my car made it on the Siem Plato and will land in Halifax on Nov 6th . Any one know how long it will take to make it over to Vancouver from Halifax? Been a super long wait as it will be a year since initial deposit shortly.

Beautiful car! I'm on the Siem Plato, as well. Unfortunately, my car has to make it all the way to the west coast. Man, those boats are slow.

Am no expert about shipping, but....

My dysfunctional TYD simultaneously claims my car is still just scheduled for production; is on GlovisChorus; will arrive in Benicia on 11/25; but will also finish Benicia port processing on 11/19/21

Talked to my dealer who confirms car is on GlovisChorus
Also know P has no VPC anywhere near Newark, so suspect this bizarre, alleged route is fake news
And asked SF friends who get new P's every year: barring CARB issues, cars arriving at Benicia tend to reach SF region dealers within 2d (advantages of a smaller port/VPC vs SD that serves the far higher-volume LA region, arguably world's biggest P-buying urban region)

I don’t think the ship is only carrying Porsches (or even only VW Group vehicles) since it stopped in Bremerhaven before (BMW loads their cars onto ships in Bremerhaven) and Zeebrugge after Emden, so there are likely other manufacturers’ cars on the ship. They’ll have to drop those off at Newark.

And Mercedes uses Zeebrugge / Baltimore

I hope it doesn't mean they offloaded some of our cars in Davisville?

Fair points

Truly remarkable how, for years, one has been able to track a $10 package with precision, yet we still suffer such sloppy tracking data vs >$100K cars

If history is any indicator, it should get there a little early. I am on the the Felicity Ace as well. Keep our fingers crossed.

Car is still "en route" on day #4, having left JAX on Thursday,

If it doesn't show up today, then I have no idea what's going on.

Looks amazing and must be so satisfying! One last favor before you leave us. I cannot get free satellite updates on Fleetmon for some reason. Any chance you can update us on Felicity Ace one more time?? Thank and enjoy
