Wrong Tomar, this is a some sort of small cargo ship, not a car carrier...

Thanks Kal, I did some digging and found that the Tomar I was tracking is actually some yacht! Funny coincidence that it would also be in the English Channel at the same time as the "real" Tomar, and in the right general position (though heading the "wrong" way).
BTW good job on the name of your car, I'm a big fan of Burn Notice too. Speaking of, when do we get some new episodes??

According to the Boyd website (http://boydsteamship.com/booking.php) the Tomar arrives at the Manzanillo International Terminal at 2000 Hrs on the 18th (don't know if that's local time or GMT). It is scheduled for transit "AM" on the 20th.
I just checked the Vesseltracker app in Google Earth and it hasn't shown up there yet.
Perfect - we can have a party. I have had a great experience with Jerod so far.
HAHAHAHA... I love the "so far"... I said the exact same thing to my wife just this morning. Jerod HAS been great... but in the back of my mind is a little voice telling me that he IS still a car salesman and the process ain't over yet...
I could be wrong, but a ship that looks like it very well could be the Tomar is taking its sweet time passing through the Gatun locks in the Panama Canal at this very moment. Image isn't clear enough for me to get a look at the ship's name yet but it certainly matches the pics of the Tomar, and this is approximately when it was supposed to be there, so...

It occurred to me this morning that there are 5-6 of us on here that all have one thing in common, well two really... MINIs and the Tomar. This thread will end sometime in the next two weeks as we all scatter... BUT, if you all are planning to go to AMVIV7 in Vegas, Mar 26-28 (http://www.amviv.com/) we should meet somewhere, have a drink and toast the Tomar! Anyone wanna start a "Toast the Tomar at AMVIV7" thread? Bill
Here is a "maybe" FYI for you... IF you wanna check, maybe starting some time Wednesday, but for sure Thanksgiving day, this website "may" pick up the Tomar. It appears to log ships as far south as Enseñada and their reporting seems to be near "real time".
