Hey....anybody adding tint? I can not decide how much and whether to tint the front windows.

 

I am up in the air about tint right now....we'll see what happens though,

I see that our ship is moving along nicely and is on time! Looks like we are still scheduled to set sail tomorrow.

Anyone planning on doing there own oil changes or waiting until the car says its time? I come from the old school of thought...3 months or 3k miles.

Mines on the Toledo!

 

I'm passing on tinting...seems kind of daft tinting a convertible, especially if it's supposed to be open 90% of the time.

Nice to see lady LIBERTY is still on schedule. Still, it's going to be an agonizing few weeks.

 

Hello all,
I just spoke to ASK MINI, and they told me my wifes MCSC was completed on 2/26, and at the dock on the 27th. I am in Florida, so how can i check my vin with what ship it is on, and what carrier?
HELP! I am getting too eager.

 

Welcome, Coobah!

This thread I linked above has all the info you could possibly need about tracking your MINI:

Thanks Porco,
ASK MINI told me it was done, and at the dock, but did not come up in the search I tried. I followed your directions in teh posted link.
Any ideas?

Thanks again for the help!

 

DId you go to Cargo Tracking at the Walhenius Wilhelmsen site?

http://www.2wglobal.com/www/wep/index.jsp

If you select Cargo Tracking, and then AUto Tracking, you should be able to track by your VIN number, if the car is scheduled to be on a WW ship.

 

Thanks a ton!
I think I found it. She is leaving on the Liberty today! Due in Charleston on the 19th according to the website.

WOOOOHOOO!

 

The LIBERTY has set sail! We are on our way.....next stop New York!

The ship is also showing up on the AISLive website for those of you who want to track the ship every movement!

 

Can you link it? Our babies are on that ship together.

 

HEMI: I have tried twice unsuccessfully to request a login/password for the AISLive two-week trial.

Would it be OK to ask for your login information?

Thx...Paul

Note: The LIBERTY has not shown up yet on this tracking site...

Paul,

PM me or email me at jdimetal@hotmail.com

 

Hemi-Mini,
My log in wouldn't work either.
Can you post updated maps for us?

Thanks.

 

Here is an updated PIC of the Liberty hanging out. Does not look like the she has moved much.

 

Here she is sitting at the doc...live pic from a few minutes ago. Looks like she is running a day late.

AISLive confirms that she has not moved.....I have been refreshing the page and have seen other ships around her moving along.

Interesting tidbit....the Liberty is the only ship in the WW fleet that flies an American Flag

 

Liberty is not scheduled to leave until 10 AM EST This is according to the departure/arrival schedule found on the Southampton VTC website. Unless she makes great time coming over the pond expect expect a 1 day delay so estimated arrival in NY would be 3/13

 

NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was expecting to wake up this morning and see that the LIBERTY had miraculously made it halfway across the pond!

At least the WW site shows that I've been loaded on the LIBERTY.

Anyone come up with a name for their Mini? My wife thinks I'm crazy.....well she right, but that's beside the matter. Of course, she thinks it is her car...alot she knows.

 

Our baby was loaded at 13:04 yesterday on the Liberty.

Happy Motorin', errrrrr, I mean sailing!

 

OK...WW shows that the LIBERTY has sailed. Anyone with AISLive can confirm? It has not shown up yet on sailwx site.

 

Okay guys.....LIBERTY is on her way! I just uploaded a picture to my gallery which shows radar tracking from the Southampton VTC.

I double checked her schedule....she is on time at this point. Lets hope mother nature keeps it this way!

 

I will do my best to keep the pictures in my gallery as updated as possible with the Libertys movements. Now I think I am going crazy tracking this ship around the world!

 

Thanks! And no, you're not crazy. At least I do not think so....

 

New picture added to my gallery......another AISLive picture showing the LIBERTY being pulled by the Southampton Patrol tugboats. Don't worry the LIBERTY is fine. This is very normal....afterall, the LIBERTY is big boned!
