Looks like Winston missed the boat....unless they haven't updated the "Loaded on Vessel" list to show the final loaded list...The Integrity left SH already. :-(

Hum, PBL was loaded at 15:12. Can't tell when the ship left, but it did leave. Any way to track the ship during the crossing?

I think you can find it on this site:

http://www.sailwx.info/shiptrack/index.html#search

I just looked ,and the info for the Integrity hadn't been updated since 05/08.

Well, I hope the person who updates the list just went home for the weekend without finishing inputting all who made it on board....but chances are the list is automated as they load them on the ship, like UPS or FedEx. So maybe Winston will catch the next boat. C'mon Winston you can do it...get on the damn ship...whatever it takes...OK, I'm going insane! :-)

UJ does it actually show "loaded on vessel" on your tracking? Mine STILL says "Recieved at Terminal" IT has said that since 5/14

For those who didn't make it onto the Integrity....looks like the next WW ship is the Titus, leaving SH on 5/24....arriving at Charleston, SC on 6/07.

Maybe a mid-June delivery to KC is still possible. :-)

Yeah, mine still shows the Integrity and says:

RECEIVED AT TERMINAL SOUTHAMPTON 19/05/2006 12:53
BOOKED SOUTHAMPTON 19/05/2006 10:21


...just figured he'd catch the next WW ship under the listed schedule for SH to Charleston, which is the Titus. (found under the WW - schedule - search for ports option)

I guess I'm not too surprised Winston missed the Integrity, if that's the case.
When I searched by booking number, most of the other VIN#'s that were loaded on the vessel arrived and were booked on earlier dates. ....Now I need to see how long I can go without checking again.

I sure hope mine isnt rescheduled, cause that will be the 3rd ship it has been scheduled to be on and didnt make it on. What order do they load these things? Do they just randomly pick cars to put on the ship?

Well, of course the ones that get damaged at the port have to go to their little body-shop for touch-up . . . That rarely takes more than a week.

Winston is now booked on the Freedom....leaving SH 5/26....arriving in Charleston on 6/11. Mid-June delivery looks doubtful...unless they really hussle at the distribution Center.

I thought he was going on the TITUS leaving 5/24....but I haven't seen that name used on earlier production weeks...so maybe it isn't an auto carrier.

HAHA i got a real scare, i looked this morning and now Smurf is scheduled for the Freedom, WTF, why is it now on its 3rd vessel? First the Liberty, then the Integrity, now the Freedom? This info was really bugging me so i called up my MA, and her computer shows that its on a ship (but she doesnt know which) and due to reach Charleston on 6/1. WOW thats more like it. So i guess it really is on the Integrity cause that vessel was due 6/3

Assuming the WW site is correct, my MSC is on board the integrity. Of course I've been tracking her progress... She's steaming along nicely and ran 177 nautical miles in the twelve hours between her two reports today, so she's making about 14-15 knots.

If the timing is right, I may have to be a total nerd and take my sailboat out in NY Harbor to meet Integrity as she passes through the narrows.

Congratulations, it looks like everybody has a boat. May the seas trat our babies with care.

On another note, is anybody picking up a leg of MINI takes the states? If you haven't heard about it check out miniusa go to motor on and MINI takes the states. It is a cross country road trip and I think I am going to pick it up in Nashville and make two legs to St. Louis and then on to Indianapolis. It will be good to have Shadow with his Brothers and Sisters for his first big road trip.

Yeah, GatorMini....when I searched by booking number on the Freedom, only 123 Vin#'s were on the list waiting to board. I think they can load over 160, so we have a good chance, unless a whole new bunch of mini's come along before Friday and elbow their way in front of us. Hopefully it is first-come first serve....although that doesn't always appear to be the case.

Out of curiosity, I checked the Integrity by booking number just to be sure, and they now only list the ones who are on board...makes sense.

Good to hear Irish Cooper finally made it on the Integrity...if his MA is right! :-)
