Tracking the Undine - June 28th Sailing

Thought I'd share some pics of the Undine carrying minis made in the Mid-to-end-of-June timeframe and destined for the east coast (New York, Baltimore, Brunswick, Galveston, and Manzanillo).

The Undine just left Halifax and is enroute to New York. ETA is July 7th.







I'll post more if/when I get them. I'll be tracking it to NYC as that's where my mini gets off!

Thanks lcoffin ! It turns out my MC Mayfair is on the same ship as your Mini. How long do you expect from port to dealership?

From what I've read it could be a few days in the port to a few weeks. I have to wait for my dealer to add the JCW tuning kit too, so I'm expecting to pick my car up no sooner than mid-month, and probably more like end of month. It'd be awesome if I can get it before my b-day on the 24th though!!

Looks like last nights ETA was a bit optimistic as the Undine is just entering the area now. Currently just south of Coney Island and the Verranzo-Narrows Bridge:

Looks like the Undine docked just after 8 am EDT this morning. The Wallenius Wilhelmsen database hasn't been updated to show any of the minis having been unloaded yet, but I'm sure they are working on it!

Thanks lcoffin. Talked to my MA and he said I should be able to pick up the MC mayfair before the end of next week. Starting to make plans for the 150 miles trip there.

Cool! I hope they get those cars cleared through inspection fast for both of us!

Interesting... It looks like they moved the Undine to a different dock this morning. And the WW cargo database still shows the minis as being on the ship, so I guess they unload them at this new dock?

The WW site now lists a number of minis as 'discharged'... looks like they finally unloaded!

My MA told me yesterday morning that the car should arrive at the dealer on July 10th or 12th.

I used a combination of sites. The Wallenius Wilhelmsen site, of course, then for tracking the Undine:

Started with: http://www.sailwx.info/shiptrack/shi...html?call=SHJC for tracking before Southampton and between ports.

In Southampton: http://www.ais-live.co.uk/aismap/AIS%20Maps/solent.html ... one of the views in there is the webcam view where I captured the Undine on the way out.

http://www.marinetraffic.com/ais/ -- for in-port tracking for Halifax and New York

http://www.novascotiawebcams.com/halifax/pier-21.html -- for Halifax web cams

And http://traffic.nymaritime.org/arrivalsny.aspx gives some Port of New York arrival/departure info as well.

Never did find any cams for NYC that showed the port...
