Mine is on the same ship. Just found out from my MA today!

I made a similar post earlier, but it never showed up. Not sure why.

 

Try this site, thats where I'm tracking the Hestia Leader carrying MoJo.

You can look under ship list, but I did not see georgia highway listed.

 

I think K-Lines must be run by some retired naval officers. Their OPSEC is superior. However, thanks to our buddy above, here is a two-day old position, which is better than nothing. http://www.shipais.com/showship.php?mmsi=432629000

Most trans-oceanic travel seems to be tracked using the voluntary weather reports captains send. My first MINI, also on K-Lines, got a whole 2 reports for the entire transit when other ships were reporting daily.

Now, if you're trying to keep a low profile, that's the way to do it.

My MA hazarded this estimate for me:
Arrives Charleston 24 Jun.
VDC 25 Jun
Mini of Nashville by 28 Jun. To me the next day (29th), but no guarantees.

If he is right, I'll be away from home the 4th of July. Wonder where I can find the bestest fireworks??

 

Those of you on the K-Line ship, what does the Mini Owners Lounge say about your car? In Transit or what? My wife's car still isn't "in transit" yet but it's been built for a week now....and our MA is off until Thursday :-(

 

The Owner's lounge is always a little slow to update. Tough to go by that. Keagan is on a WW ship (the Faust) but the OL still shows awaiting transport. It must be really tough on those of you sailing on K-line. My MA also tells me I might have Keagan by the end of the month.

 

Ok, UPDATE, my OL says our car is "En Route" now....so I'm going to guess it's on the Georgia Highway....as I thought initially it might be on that ship. Now if my MA would just get back to work so I can know for sure! haha. Tomorrow won't come soon enough!

 

Yesterday my MA told me mine was on the Georgia Highway as of about the 12th. The OL just changed status from "Awaiting Transport" to "Enroute" this morning. That puts the OL behind by about 5 days. Hopefully only 1 more week at sea.

 

Mine just changed this morning too, so I bet we're on the same boat....who knows, maybe our cars are friends and roomates!

 

vesseltracker.com is supposed to be good also. My mini is also on the slow boat from England.

 

I tried VesselTracker on Google Earth, but it didn't seem to have Ga. Hwy.

 

I tried the same thing, with the same results. I think the problem may be that the ships position is only given when the crew makes weather observations. They may only do that every couple of days or so. Until we hear from them, we will not know where they are. Low tech stealth. But when they do, they should be seen on any of the vessel tracking sites.

 

Are we hoping for mini MINIs upon arrival?

 

Twilight Zone? Around the bend? Over the hill? Uncharted waters? Thar be dragons? Bermuda Triangle? Parallel universe?

 

Worm hole.

 

Maybe they'll find Flight 447!

 

So found out officially today that my wife's car IS on the "Georgia Highway". ETA to Charleston is the 24th...

 

Nah, they just got to close to the tub drain

 

Sailing, Sailing...Over the Ocean Blue.

Anybody else on the FAUST? Last position check shows her about 2/3 rds of the way accross the pond.

Excitement is building as the day draws nearer. How's everyone else holding up?

 

I can't wait. Well, i'm not as excited as I probably should be. My son picked the colors and most of the options since he'll get it to drive in two years. Gonna get a mini do more hitch for it. Just waiting on the georgia highway to unload in Charleston.

 

Has anyone had any success in tracking? I can't pull any info on the Hestia Leader bound for California.

A stoic. Fascinating .

 

I wish I could track the darn "Georgia Highway"...would make it much more fun. But since it hasn't "pinged" any of the systems used by the tracking sites for months...it's a no-go :-( Going to have to wait til the 22nd to see if it indeed make it into port at Baltimore....and then the 24th unloaded at Charleston! :-)

My wife is extremely happy, she was hoping to have it by the weekend of July 4th......and it looks like that very well might happen!!!

 

6/24 - Charleston, Union Pier Terminal, Berth 3. Everyone pack a bag lunch

 

On another site, found this as the reported location of the VDC in Greer. It's next to the BMW plant. Confirmed the plant is true with Google Earth Panarimo pix. Nothing to absolutely confirm the adjacent building as the VDC, but it makes sense.

 

Packed! See ya there!
