Good luck! My car waited a month at this step after just missing the ship that was loading.

Mine still not showing anything since being Released for Transport on February 22nd, and not showing Arrival at Emden until April 24th. And then for some reason doesn't show leaving port until July 15th. Apparently the Porsche gods are not happy with me as it seems like it is still parked in France and not making any movement over the last few weeks.

If it's heading to NY, it won't be on the Composer. More likely the Conductor or Siem Cicero which stop in RI.

Whatever problem they've had over the last 10 days might not be resolved and they just got pushed out of port.

I have zero knowledge about these vehicle carriers but hopefully all will be well and we all get to enjoy our new toys in a couple of weeks, doesn't help that there is practically no information as to what is going on with the vessel or else I think we would all be a little less anxious lol.

Being on the ship and not going anywhere has been the most frustrating part of this whole experience so far!

Could also just be sea traffic. My cars ship (Pheonix Leader) that left recently puttered around back and forth off the coast for a good part of 24 hours before finally getting into the flow of traffic and heading away.

Wow there is still hope. That is why I love this site. Great real life experience information.

Can’t even imagine the logistics of swapping 1000s of cars from ship to ship if there is truly a mechanical issue. Let’s just hope the problem is resolved soon. Anchored for now. Hopefully things get moving soon

Not uncommon to be at anchor for a day after departing Emden, my ship was also, I assume it has something to do with traffic control through the English Channel.

Mine has been stuck as stage 7 since march 23rd. I have heard others have gotten stuck sitting at port for a month before getting on a boat. Expect the worst and hope for the best is all anyone can do.

I was in Emden for 31 days, and I would say that is more the rule than the exception, at least lately, perhaps less for east coast deliveries for some reason.

They should build indoor parking at the port, then I wouldn't be so upset about them setting there. ok, I would be, but still...
