Where's all the boats?

Nelrock · 12-06-2010, 05:22 AM

Anybody else, at the port awaiting a shipping vessel, for a while? Going on 11 days here.

Falcon Keeper · 12-06-2010, 06:17 AM

I'm right there with ya however I've been at the port since Saturday. I just hope to god my car is not there for a month

Mine was at the port since Nov 25th, just loaded up on the Taiko and sailed yesterday. Gets into Baltimore on Dec 20th hopefully. I noticed the shipping company's system takes at least 24 hours to update.

Been at the port since Nov 25th. No obvious progress so far.

Nelrock · 12-06-2010, 08:43 PM

Yeah...I been there since the 25th as well.
Things were going so smoothly this time around, I actually was thinking I'd have it for Christmas.

Ah well. If it shows up undamaged, this time, they can take all the time they need.

Mine arrived at the port to be shipped on the 24th also -- I just found out that mine got onto the FIDELIO over the weekend. Have you checked the WWL cargo tracking with your VIN to see if you're on a ship yet? The BMW site and 800# say I am still sitting at the port despite the fact my car is currently on its way west.

You just reminded me...I hadn't hit my SA up for my VIN yet. I'll do that today.
Preciate the info.

Nelrock · 12-08-2010, 12:12 PM

My SA said this morning that is still has not been loaded.

I'm starting to get that sinking feeling I got when my first order was stuck at VPC for 3 weeks. :-(

This'll be my last order though. If something happens to this one...I'll take that as a sign.

golfrrr posted on another thread the port is SLAMMED right now, sounds like they have more cars than ships right now....

cloud8r · 12-08-2010, 09:13 PM

She landed on the Curitiba last night. Website updated her in the processing center a couple hours ago.
Provided the transport driver doesn't wreck this one...the ordeal is almost over.
