I'm actually on a different ship that left Germany on the 5th. I'm in the Bay Area, Northern CA.

oh snap...they must have boats leaving all the time, huh? i was under the impression the martorell was like the only one for weeks. the weird thing is the AMG manager said the 7th at LB, but the website says 13th. not sure which one is accurate...hope it's the 7th. haha

That surprised me too that they had two ships leaving so close together. I think these ships are vehicle carriers only, so that's a lot of cars.

I saw the pictures of your car. Very nice, I almost went with that color but at the last minute went with white. First white car.

The white looks good also! I thought about white, I knew I wanted the red/black interior...and it looked really good with the Selenite Gray.
And was originally going with the Mango Selinite Grey, but I saw them both side by side on the showroom floor and thought the shinny version was for me...

I am so ready for my car to be here...!!!

Sexy twins.
Wow, they do look like twins!

There won't be any updates for a while. These free sites only provide land based AIS tracking. The ship has to be near a coast to be picked up by the receivers. Once it's out in the ocean it can only be tracked via Satellite-AIS, but you have to pay for that.

Ah, I see. I had seen this live tracker a while ago but didn't realize at the time it wasn't searchable without paying. I was thinking all the sites even if they didn't show a map still had somewhat live data.



I really wasn't worried. I know it's coming.

https://www.myshiptracking.com/ has free alerts and a mobile app. You actually get a 1000 credits and each alert costs 3 credits. Should be enough for the entire journey. I've setup alerts for arrival/departure in Bremerhaven, and arrival in Long Beach.
