Those links are for tracking ship, you can easily find out who owns the orion highway and go to their website.

If I recall correctly from when I was waiting for mine in 2020, I believe this is correct.

I jinxed myself. When I said I don’t expect we’ll see a boat until late July I apparently meant just me. If they use Wallenius there’s a few boats July 24,25 and 26. If they use another company I might get an early surprise. I was thinking late august when I got the build date so it’s still on track.

Man, I got robbed by missing out on those last two ships you all got on. Built on June 21 and then at the port June 26. It’s still there and the next ships have been delayed. Nothing until July 28 now. The best ship leaves Aug 2 and is direct to Brunswick getting in on Aug 11. Knowing my luck I’ll be on the july 28 Arc Integrity which doesn’t dock until Aug 21. It’s all good, at least it was built and actually exists. Been reading about people who just had their orders canceled by MB.

There's now three ships converging on Bremerhaven due in tomorrow (25th). --Patriot, Arc Integrity and the Fidelio. If my car doesn't get on one of these I'm buying a Charger. j/k

Were you able to talk to a Sales Manager where you purchased? My car was not on any of the Wallenius ships but was loaded on an NK ship, Orion Highway that arrived a Brunswick yesterday. Confirmed it again with the Sales Manager a few minutes ago.

I haven't yet. I'm giving it until the end of the month. I'm still trying to play nice so they don't try to add the "this guy's an *******" tax. I already got them to agree to MSRP after initially hitting me with a "$10K markup on all AMG models." I'm assuming they're going to try to sneak some of that markup in somewhere else. I was anticipating late August once I got the build date so I'm still on track.

Backtrack it, this is the port of brunswick schedule for ships coming in.

Ship info. https://www.fleetmon.com/vessels/bro...#tab-datasheet

I used fleetmon to track my entire ship daily across the atlantic, took about 10 days. Then its 2 weeks about to get your car from there, but normally 7-10 days.

LMAO, who would have thought just buying a car would turn us into such supersleuths. I found out the ship is operated by Zodiac Maritime, their webpage is not nearly as customer oriented as Wallenius Willhemson. The Brunswick page will definitely help. Thanks.

Yep, it just set sail this morning. ETA to Baltimore is Aug 5 then Aug 8 for Brunswick. Once again, silence from the sales rep though. After she emailed me the ship name and signs off with let me know if you have any further questions, I reply asking if she has any idea on the ship's schedule...nothing. I got more info on here so thanks.
