Default ONVESL

Well thanks to my trusted friend Mjones also known as Brian on these forums sporting his new Guards Red GT3 the name of my vessel is "The Phoenix Leader" due to arrive in Baltimore on Dec 24th, Christmas Eve. What a Christmas present. Looks like my birthday will come early this year.

I used one of these (forget which), if you have the ship's name/call sign:

http://www.shiptrak.org/

http://www.sailwx.info/shiptrack/shiplocations.phtml

or the port's site.

If you PM me your VIN# I will see if I can determine your ship and arrival date.
Otherwise check with you rep he should be able to help you. I'm sure it's on a ship probably the same as mine depending on where you live.

Thanks everyone for the nice comments. I told my wife that on Christmas Eve when most kids are on the computer tracking the path of Santa, I'll be checking the path of a ship. I wil post pics in January when she finally arrives.

The Phoenix Leader is docked in Rhode Island as we speak and will be heading towards Baltimore soon. The wait is tough but I'm getting through it by reading as many posts as I can.

Congrats Jay,

Your wait is short now. I still have 3 months of waiting to do... Hope you get a speedy delivery once it docks.

Santa's ship has finally landed and anchored in Baltimore. It won't be long now. The wait will be coming to an end. Can't wait to see my new baby. The way it looks probably somewhere the first week of Jan 2010 after she passes through PDI. Can't wait to post pics.
A Merry Christmas, and Happy Chanukah to all.

Jay
