Comport. Conratulation it does seem that your wait is almost over. I do not know what ship KPMINI is on, I do know that he left port on the 23rd, Monday. Expected at the VDC on the 14th of November. West coast deliver since I am in Arizona. Still not bad. Have fun motoring, and post pictures when you take delivery.

My ship (AIDA) does not have updated info on the sailwx site so I do no know where it currently is.

KPMINI - Shouldn’t your MA have the ship name?

Estimated docking date for the PATRIOT is 10/29. Not a Mini of Manhattan customer, but a Princeton Mini customer.

Ok i just want to know how all of you found out what vessel your Mini's where on. My MA says that he does not have the ablity to tell me and he does not know. Said that is not an option he can get to.
All I know is the KPMINI left on 23 OCT, and is expected in the USA 14 NOV.
I just wish I could watch the progress of the boat he is on.
Thanks.

the details are posted here, on this thread:

https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...ad.php?t=70301

all you'll need is your VIN number, which either your MA or 866-ask-mini should be able to help you with.

good luck!

Just FYI: Our ship docked on Thursday in Charleston and it was at the Nashville dealership on Saturday evening. We picked it up yesterday...so the turn around through the VDC can be quite short...I expected a week or so.

Thanks Comport, I have been trying everything in that thread no luck. I have only gotten the information from my MA and that is all. I really do appreciate the help. I says in that thread that some West Coast shippers are not on the WW line, so I guess that is me.
Have fun motoring. I will be soon.

My Coop has arrived in NY! Now the long wait until it arrives at the dealer. Fortunately it won't have to travel far since I'm in CT!

Ship Name Hurray!!!!

TURANDOT is the name of my ship. I just got this. It is expected in Port Heuneme on the 14th.
nejhad - MA said he did not have the ablitity the dealership took that away from them about 4 months ago. Is your ship due into Port on the 13th?
I can not wait going through the Panama Canal on the 6th.
I feel a little better now that I know the name of the ship

KPMINI - My ship arrived at the NY port on Oct. 31st. I'm in Connecticut so I'm hoping the wait till the coop arrives at the dealer won't be too long.

You should have your's by the end of the month or the first week of December I would think. Depends on how long they keep it at the VDC.

Currently: At Distribution Center

Got an estimated delivery date of 11/17/06. Yikes. Kind of later than expected, but what can ya do?

Don't know what takes so long. My dealership is in Princeton, NJ. The distribution center is in Newark, NJ, and it docked in NY.
