how do you track it like this?

 

haha, well im sure they will become good friends after such a voyage!

 

He's a wizard, Harry...

 

on board the same ship. Ordered it back in August and have been calling BWM daily for status updates. If only BMW Canada had the website updates available in the US.

Anyone know how to track it on a train?

 

Dat's right!


With the help of minmor719 providing the link to the dock: http://www.ais-live.co.uk/AIS%20Live/aissolent.html

 

is it possible to track the status of the ship when its out to sea? i cant seem to find it near the port anymore and im assuming its beyond what that site tracks?

 

From the first sticky on this page, http://www.sailwx.info/ - you can track the ship provided it reports back its position (submitting weather reports).

 

Tracking at sea is by using sailwx.info using her callsign of 3FKB9, but since that site is not showing any previous history, looks like the Captain is not using the AIS system. So you most likely will not see her on a map again till off the coast of Halifax, you can use the AISfree site and check for her arrival at that port on 10/15.

 

My baby is on the Asian Emperor!!! Looks like after a protracted pub crawl in South Hampton, she's dining on some fine sushi!!!!!

Congrats Shipmates!!!

so after the long boat ride to cali, how long does a car typically spend at the VDC?

 

Depending on how busy the VDC is and if you have any items to be installed there, average delivery time to your area is about 6 - 9 days, including the time at the VDC.
This is just an average from what I have noted over the last few months.

 

Have you had any luck locating your Mini ?

 

cool! haha... now how long does it take the dealer to do the final prep?

 

Not sure but i am going to go sleep outside Rasmussen once the little one reaches them

 

Hey miniphatty, do you know if the ship arrived Halifax yet? How did you track it?

 

The Aisan Emperor has not arrived at Halifax as of yet, since it is scheduled to depart that port on 10/16, she may not arrive in port till late today/evening.

The link below is for the AISfree map of the Halifax area and you can watch for her to show up on it.

You will have to ask your MA about that, depends on their schedules. But it should only be a few days usually, or if you lucky the same day.

 

Asian Emperor is nearing the port at Halifax.

 

Yay, Thanks Tharkun.

 

 

sweeet!! its getting closer and closer!!

 

Scheduled to depart on 10/16, this is the port schedule and should show an estimated time of departure. If you check the WW site for the schedule, once
she leaves the dock, the WW site will update and show that destination in "red".

 

haha yeah, i read the earlier post wrong but thanks for the even more detailed info!!

im confused by your sig, you already have a r56, are you getting another one thats on the asian emperor?

 

I wish Nah I just try and help new owners in the tracking of ships.
