High 5!

 

Yea, Fredo! Just in time for the road closures!

 

I hope mine is on this ship as well....after my CM left the factory on 11/15 I have heard/found nothing.....

 

I don't know which ship it is on, just the expected arrival date.

 

Yep, just in time for the big snow storms and we're going to be in Reno during the holidays. Perfect timing - I can't wait.

 

Here is the schedule for Port Hueneme. http://www.portofhueneme.org/documen...l_schedule.pdf
The Dorado Leader is scheduled to arrive there on December 21. My MA confirmed that my Countryman is on it.

 

that's what I was told. Dec. 21 arrival. I hope its doesn't get hung up at the VDC.

 

Looks like it goes to Halifax first on the 4th.

Position has not been updated since 11/28,

 

What ship line is the Dorado Leader? Is it a WW ship? If not a WW ship is there any way to determine if your CM is actually on this ship?

 

NYK, I think: http://www.marinetraffic.com/ais/shi...mmsi=372140000

I know of no way to determine if a vehicle is on the ship, other than ask your MA.

 

It is not a WW ship which means no way to verify if your car is on it other than MA.

 

Anyone know when the Dorado Leader left Bremerhaven? My CM has been sitting there since 17Nov. It mised the Mignon and I am hoping it got on the Otello today or better yet something else recently.

 

The Dorado Leader left Bremerhaven Nov 25th.

 

The Otello is stilli in port at Bremerhaven. So far there are no new VINS loaded so they probably haven't updated the files yet. I've been watching for my CMS too. It completed production Nov. 18th. I understand it takes time to update the cargo id, so we will see. I can't understand how they could miss this boat as they have been waiting 15 days for a ride home to us.

Of course Prescott has had its earliest snows and it is snowing right now. I sold my Subaru in anticipation of the Countryman ALL 4 so now I am left with my new 2-week old 2012 MINI CabrioS which will never go out in bad weather and the CUBE which is my Greyhound car, but will not go out in snow either. Luckily my sister has her Subaru, but she lives 3 miles away on twisty roads. I stocked up on necessities before the storm, but it sure would have been nice to have the ALL 4 here.
My handyman has volunteered his help if I need to get out, too. Luckily Prescott snow doesn't last long. But this storm meant my new Greyhound couldn't be brought home to me from Phoenix.

Just have to surf NAM while we all wait for our cars.

 

The Otello just left port a few minutes ago. Marinetraffic has it just heading into open water. I guess I will check WW in a few hours.

 

Update for everyone with Mini's on the Topeaka. It just docked at Halifax an hour ago.

Yay, welcome to north america!

 

Figaro is back in range!!!! It is approaching the mouth of the Chesapeake!

 

Go Figaro! That is the best Monday news I have heard all year. Thanks for the update. The wait will soon be over.

 

Don Juan left Southampton on time and steaming 13 knots around the Isle of Wight heading into the N Atlantic. Next stop Halifax and then port NYC! Dead on to the voyage schedule.

 

My MA just called and said my CM is on the Otello...crap. Don't know of I believe him or not. My CM should have made the docks around 11/16.

My CM is still not listed on the WWL manifest and the Otello has already left Bremerhaven and is currently in Zeebrugge.

The Otello is not even listed on the arrival schedule for Port Hueneme. Anyone know when it is expected in port?

I believe the Otello is due on the 28th. I hope to be on it too. My production finished 11/11, an I believe it was at the port around th 16th as well. Three ships have left since then for port heneume.

 

The Otello is due in PH on Dec 28th. Reading the last two posts makes me thankful mine got on a boat in between the Mignon and the Otello.
If I remember correctly, the VIN's for the cars that were on the Mignon did not come up until the ship left South Hampton. Maybe it will be the same drill again.

 

My baby left Bremerhaven this morning on the Taiko, due in Baltimore on the 16th after a brief stop in Southampton. Anybody else here ship-pooling with me?

 

I believe mine is on the Taiko as well. I received an email today from my MA stating a port arrival estimate of 12/16/11. No ship was stated but it seems to match the Taiko's schedule.
