Here is the latest screen capture for the Carmen, she is still moored at Southampton but I suspect she'll be leaving very soon.

 

Yeah !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And now a safe and speedy trip to Ca...

A good day for sure.

 

Here is a link to the aisfree.aislive free map for the Port of Southhampton. If you don't know where to look on the Europe overview map is difficult to find. Here you go.

This is the second map page she'll move to after leaving the first one.

Then she'll move onto this map.

http://aisfree.aislive.com/Influx.as...thampton%20VTS

And then this one.

http://aisfree.aislive.com/Influx.as...0South%20Coast

At that point there are a couple of them that she might show up on but she'll probably move onto this one.

This should give a good start for tracking her as she leaves Southampton. I'll post what I can when I can from the subscription AIS site but I believe my trial is set to expire in about 7 hours. I also have several business meetings this morning that will keep me away from a PC.

 

Hey Mike,
according to the port schedule the Carmen won't leave till the 26th.

here is a link to check that schedule:

I still remember the wait after Mr MrMan was loaded. :yikes

 

Hey Mike,
I got another Link for you to check on the Carmen with live radar in Southampton!!! Here goes:

Gosh I really like this thread.

Yes, I just checked that myself since she hadn't moved. I thought it was todays date originally but it is listed for the 26th. 12:00 UTC should be 5:00 AM Pacific Time.

 

W.T.F. Is the Carmen on a break?

 

Hee hee, I think Mike has gone from this to this to this to this .

 

Obviously WW lines is in dire need of me coming down there, straightening the schedule out, and attaching several JATO tubes to the Carmen

 

 

 

Careful Mike,...homeland security could come knocking at yer door.

Besides,..you would be better off using the rocket boosters from the shuttle as they are solid fuel and simple to light off. And once lit, they cannot be shut down.

 

I like the way you think!

 

Oh Skuzzy, don't encourage him. We don't want a SWAT team showing up at our next mod night. :impatient

 

What? I designed the entire mounting system while waiting for Romi. But then the sneaky bastiages did the unexpected. They put her on a boat and did not tell me what boat!!!!

Hate to see all thet work go to waste.

 

Hrmmmm

Don't be too hasty, JJ. I mean, if Mike actually follows through with his plans to fly over there, stalk executives at WW, be placed under arrest for tresspassing and making love to a MINI in public...then there is the distinct possibility that I would be alone at the point of the new baby's delivery...and that would then force me to have to drive it...you know, to welcome it to the family, get it through its break-in period, perform its first mods, etc etc. Naturally, I can't neglect LilTiger...so I'll need a couple of co-pilots for the new MINI.

Bwahahahahahaha, I can always find a silver lining!!!

and this may be the only opportunity I ever get to drive the new one!

 

Oops, I forgot to ask myself, "WWTD?"

What Would Tig Do

 

Not a chance in H-E-DOUBLEHOCKYSTIX! LOL

 

Then there is a chance in San Diego.

 

uhhh NOPE

 

Carmen still in in SH

 

Good News Mike, the Carmen has left Southampton. I just happened to check the aisfree site and found it on the UK South Coast map. Here is a screen capture for you.

 

She should be due in to Manzanillo on August 5th at 23:00 UTC according to that other free English Channel AIS site. It is off of their coverage area now, but they had that info listed in the ships that they were showing up in the last 24 hours section of the site. That would actually be moving pretty fast.

 

Here is another screen capture where she isn't quite as close to that other ship so she is easier to pick out.
