I hope so, but right now it doesn't appear so. 9mph and against wind direction.
Let's keep checking every hour! 😀
BTW, we have just over 9500 miles to get it to the Bay Area (less for San Diego of course)... A long trip ahead! Let's just make it out of European Water as the first milestone!
ugh... guess I was wrong. Curious why it's still waiting?
Really sorry to hear that. What dates does your sales rep show in their internal tracking system?

Oh my goodness, =/ Not a good feeling I know.
Thrust, the internal system date that' was updated since I missed my first ship (Glovis) showed March 29th (Exit Emeden Port) and it ended up being correct. Do you have any feedback/updates from your SA on what the "expected port exit date is"?
I certainly understand and share the frustration. I inexplicably missed two ships and was stuck in Emden for over 9 weeks until I finally got onto Jiuyang. Strange you didn’t get on Cepheus with a 03/29 date. While most are not helpful, check with your sales rep this weekend and see if they have revised dates. Keep the faith.
Per NYK’s schedule it does show Bremerhaven as the next stop.

For those on Jiuyang an early Friday morning update: it looks like Jiuyang might, just possibly might, be leaving the safe confines of a French bay and heading out to the Channel. It’s near the tip of the peninsula and has speed of 14 knots. It head faked us at least twice yesterday so I’m cautiously optimistic this time. I’ll check again in an hour or so.
Sumire Leader is only at the mouth of the Channel even though it left late yesterday. Cepheus Leader arrived in Bremerhaven but it’s parked offshore right now. I assume it’s waiting for a berth to open up.
The northern Atlantic only has light yellow in terms of waves.

Glovis Companion - for those that are currently on the Glovis Companion from Emden to the West Coast, it has reached the Panama Canal - Gatun Locks (Atlantic entrance). It had a stop in Santa Marta Columbia, and is now entering the canal. There are live webcams for the canal locks - here is a live shot that was from 6:30
AM PST (3/29/24). It should reach its first stop in San Diego around 4/7/24.

Yup... finally headed out @ 16.3kts now. ETA was also updated... just a few hours later than originally planned.
Glovis Companion is in the Panama Canal
Glovis Cosmos is in the Carribean, south of Jamaica
King Quest is in the middle of the Atlantic
Jiuyang Blossom is heading out of the English Channel
Cepheus Leader is docked outside Emden
I swear I missed my calling, I should've gone into logistics
Here is a picture of the King Quest being loaded in Emden the day our cars were loaded for those who are on King Quest
