Yeah that's my ETA as well but if we both make the earlier boat we could be meeting at Ray Catena by the 16th !!!!! Now that would be sweet

Really

Thing is these aren't completely accurate as in the past they haven't shown all stops.

@kpblade Which of the two is the correct one. The second suggests that there are 2 boats to RI in early December (3 and 5) and the first suggested that the boats are on Nov 30 and Dec 14 - Thanks

gohawks23

The second one is the latest version but you can verify by using ship name at vessel finder to see where they're at.

Asian King is in the channel and that is meant to leave on the third and the Bishu Highway was off the east coast 4 days ago and that was meant to leave on the 5th and so that makes sense as well.

Yeah I know I should get a life but if not this I have to go and do the Honey-do list or real work - neither of which seem as interesting as setting myself up for disappointment of not getting onto the earlier ships or getting on to the earlier ship and arriving finding this CARB Sh*t is still not resolved.

The second one is the latest with most of the December sailings, I included the first since it had the later November sailings. gohawks23 is correct that it does not necessarily show all the stops. An example is that Viking Bravery is scheduled to geo to Bremerhaven after Emden according to marine traffic ,probably to load BMWs.

Yeah not really sure how they determine what gets on what ship and I'm also not sure about putting faith into getting on an earlier one as there has to be quite a backlog of cars that have been sitting at port longer than ours... especially more numerous VW models.

Glovis Century wasn't showing a stop in Baltimore... I'm hoping the boat still gets to Benicia by 12/18

gohawks23

This is interesting...

Latest schedule shows a 12/26 arrival for the Glovis Century. Stopping in Baltimore then Manta (Ecuador) before heading to San Diego and Benicia. I have a Taycan on it.

Thanks for that - interesting and complicated. I was lucky enough to have a vehicle (Macan S) on the Siem Cicero that was stranded off the coast of Halifax for a couple weeks back in March.

Ugh, thanks for posting that; I was hoping it would be here by 12/18 - the schedule I saw didn't show the other stops (aside from San Diego).

Agreed, it will be a pleasant surprise to get it early but I am counting on that not being the case - Actually I would have thought that with the slow downs that there was more delivery spaces than cars but I guess based on that article you posted there might have been a slow down not only in production but also in boats leaving. I guess I will find out in the next week. Again unless CARB is resolved and my on-order winter wheels arrive before the car, getting the car early won't make a wit of a difference so all in all I am resigned to getting the car when I get it
