In Transit - West Coast

I just called and for the first day in over a week the phone message changed. It said "In Transit"
How can I determine what ship I am on? Is there someone on these boards that can check on this for me, my CA is an idiot to say the least, I know asking him is like pulling teeth.
Thanks to all.

Mine just changed to "transported to port of exit" so we're headed the same direction (although you are ahead of me). Based on this thread:

http://www.m3post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=43692

you should be able to find out what ship you are on by checking the shipping co websites with your VIN or by calling your CA.

So I went to the above site, and this is what has me confused
Below is the listed of ships to CA. As you can see a ship left on the 21st and another not until the 3rd of this month (is only NYK is used)
So what the heck. The phone system just changed over which means the car must have shipped Friday or Yesterday given the delay.
Any ideas?

Thanks to all

I read this list differently. Camellia Ace left on 3/29, Don Juan on 3/31 and Hojin is leaving on the 3rd. Seems like you should be on the Don Juan.

Yeah, but Don Juan is a WWL ship, but as per the above thread they only ship on NYK to west coast.
I hope I am on Don Juan, since it actually has a website which shows shipping information and I can track my car with VIN.
Lets see what happens in the next couple of days, since it takes a few days for WWL to update their site.
Thanks

Oops - I missed that detail. Let's hope you are on one of those ships and that there are calm seas ahead.

How long did it take for yours to get on a boat after production ended?

WCH,

I'm with you. My car is enroute to port but I don't I can make the Hojin on April 3rd. Next one is April 11 on GRUS. If we miss the GRUS boat we are in for a long wait, next NYK ship is not unitl May.

Thanks to all.
Call your dealer they can tell you exactly what ship you are on, then you can try to track it. If you CA doesn't know talk to someone else. It's all the same system and anyone can get that info. FYI your car could have left days before in advance. The 800 number is about 2-3 days behind. Iam so for you.
