yeah I doubt they process on Saturday, but they will unload so boat can move on---I'm still aiming for 11/16 pick up date

She just appeared on Marinetraffic--in between a few islands far off the coast of Spain--still a long long ways from Baltimore

We must be looking at completely different sources. MT shows it's halfway across the Atlantic.

Screenshot? I'm seeing it near some islands far off Spain--- doesn't look near half way across to me-- but I hope what you are looking at is more accurate!

Ok, maybe not halfway, but a good 1/3 way across the North Atlantic. When I said halfway, I was approximating from point of origin.

Yes. It's out of range. Is it reasonable to think I can pick it up on 11/15 in Houston TX? How about the 22nd?

Assuming they get it through vpc within 2 days (which is appx for what's happend with my cars in the past) 15th may be cutting it close, since it's gotta truck to TX--- I say the week of the 18th is pretty much 100% for you.

Sp82, although the last update was on 11/1/13, when I pull the map with ship location, it has moved since the last time I saw it on the map. There's also a box on the bottom right that says "vessel within range: 1". Don't know what it's all about. Do you?

I think all that refers to is that there's one vessel within range of where you were looking. We will get the next update of where this ship is/eta on Wednesday. This is when Kline updates their information. I'll keep you updated.

I got the word from my dealer today that my car will be at port on 11/9 and at the dealer in houston on 11/23. 2 Week transit seems like a long time.
I realize that this is for another thread, but are you getting any port installed items?
What about MPPK? My dealer told me that the MPPK is backordered until Mid Dec.
I'm getting black grills, painted spoiler, performance exhaust and the performance brakes at the port.

Yeah that does seem like a long time. The m parts I guess is the reason for the delay.

I'm getting a 435-- only pia available I hear for that is the grills... I am doing the exhaust but that will be done at my dealer

This is what I was talking about. Even though it's considered out of range, it's evident that the BH has moved quite a bit and getting closer to the east coast.

I looked it up right before I replied. Website not working now. I don't have a paid membership. I googled bishu highway vessel, click on link with the coordinates and zoom out the map. That's it.

Ahh I see it now... I wonder if this is real time or an estimate based on information from when this was in range back on Fri and Sat

**update**

Called KLine to see if they have an updated ETA into Baltimore (first POE)

The guy I spoke to said "at this point we have it as the 7th--but thats likely to change as this vessel experienced trouble leaving Europe(im assuming the weather), and has had some issues when out at sea(this ***ng sucks)-- we anticipate it will be a few days delayed at the least and will have some more info by tomorrow"

wow..say it aint so.
