Does anybody know anything about the Andes Highway?

Nope, that's not the South American version of the Dragon.

It's a ship. And it's got MINI's on it -- including one that's of keen interest to me.

Because it's not a WW ship, it's a lot tougher to get tracking info. I have found a photo of it ( -- let's just say they're not subscribers to "Detailing 101" -- ), but not tracking info.

Any tips would be welcome...

mds, definitely.


davn, sorry for the slight hijack. I checked a few sites that I know about (thanks to Boon and Gabe), and while they recognized the Andes Highway's callsign, they had no tracking information.

I don't think the ship is in that bad of a shape, either - the pic just looks bad.

I did find this, though... It's not a tracker, but it is a scheduled arrival at a port... http://www.scspa.com/vessel_schedule.asp Are you expecting it in South Carolina?

Hijack, schmijack...

It's all good.

Heck, we're all in the same boat, ain't we?

Oops. Wait a second... nope, we're not all in the same boat -- that's why we're in such freaking misery!

In any case, it's fun to see the progress folks are making (and by "folks" I mean MINIs as well as their humans). For posterity's sake, though, it woulda been cool to start a thread called "Show me your... ship!" That would make it easier for future generations of MINI-waiters to find what we've all dug so hard for.

cheers,

davn8r
