Yea, just realized thats a week ealrier than the don juan but the boat schedule makes no sense lol.

brunswick-10/8
Charleston-10/10
baltimore-10/12

unless it goes direct from Southampton to brunswick and works it way up the east coast then back to bremerhaven.

LUCKY YOU!

Looks like Don Juan has made it to open water. It was fun tracking it while it lasted! I'm thinking the guy at fleetmon.com could sell a short term subscriptions to their satellite tracking service, just for obsessive owners waiting for their cars! Looks like he's in Germany, so maybe he'd understand.

Tracking the DJ

Anyone been able to confirm a location of the boat? Looks like it's out of range at the moment.

Unfortunately, it seems to depend upon the vessel reporting weather information or showing up on AIS. The Don Juan hadn't made a peep from the time it left the UK until it reported twice today.

The California Highway has been quiet too... sorry dude!

Hi guys, first post here. Too bad I only found out about this forum now, after ordering my car on Sept 20th. The torture of waiting has been too much!

Anyhow, my 328 is supposed to arrive in Halifax on the 9th, on the Don Juan. Then I am guessing no more than a week to be shipped to the dealership and then about another week (or less) for them to get it ready.

I saw some questions here about when the car finished production. All I can say is that around the 26th I saw the details of the ship on the WW website. It pains me a lot to see that I am more informed about the car than my dealership is.

Update

Here's where the vessel is just got the update recently. .......the page takes about a minute to load because it shows where all ships are,once the page is loaded you need to zoom into Canada by the Halifax port you guys should then more or less see the position of the boat I'm guessing for those with the Kline vessel u can probably do the same.

They're showing up on AIS again, they can definitely see land... but heading North @ .9 knots? I'm thinking they're gonna do laps around Newfoundland until Tuesday.

Yea rs that sounds about right I was thinking that also because their always on that time schedule so they'll probably do laps for a day and then dock the date their suppose to I hope we might be wrong an they'll just dock. Then again I checked the ETA on AIS for the ship and it says 2012-10-07 1200 UCT so it just might dock tonight or later on today

I've been keeping the fingers crossed too.. but I hadn't noticed the ETA change. Nice catch! Doesn't look like they made 1200, but they're heading the right direction.
