Anybody else on board the "Elektra"

OK... it's starting to get real now...

MINI Canada doesn't offer the sophisticated tracking services of MINI USA, but with the help of my Brand Specialist (that's MA in Canuck) and the great info here at NAM, I was able to determine that my Clubman was loaded on the "Elektra" today, and the ship is currently underway.



ETA for arrival in Halifax is July 9th. Then the train ride west to Alberta...

Anybody else on board the Elektra?

Aboard the Integrity, pretty quiet on the 1st gear thread... a little jog to the north today, expected to be in NY/NJ port around 7/7.

my PW/PW Cooper Clubman is currently enjoying the cruise aboard the Elektra. Probably wouldn't be a bad idea to put a little sunscreen on. Your's might want to get out of the sun for while, it looks very red.

It's a nice obsession we have, isn't it? I know that I'd never go to such lengths to track a friend or family member's location is they were on a cruise, but to know where my MINI is, well that's another story.

I trust that you're referring to the tracking obsession and not your Clubby's need to get out of the sun for a while.

figures that my 69th post would be about something that sucks (a hurricane approaching) and blows (a hurricane).

Looks like there's been a little change in schedule. The Elektra's now due in NY on the 11th, not the 10th as originally scheduled.
