Satellite confirms. Hanging in the channel still

I am more than sure those scheduled stop dates will be pushed further back. It already shows 02/16 for Baltimore.

It also sat in port in Belgium for over 7 days! Way longer than any recent stops anywhere else. Something is definitely off about it all

The dealer called me today to say delivery will be much later than expected and they have no way of knowing why the ship is sitting idle in the English Channel

Good to know. And pretty close to what I expected they’d say. Still waiting for my SA to get back to me (presumably with something similar).
Let’s hope she moves out of that channel soon.

BTW just out of curiosity: when did you place your order?

I got a msg from a former colleague who started his seagoing career as a deck office on car carriers. (My start was on tankers). He thinks that weather routing predicted bad conditions for the crossing, hence the wandering. If she was full with 7k vehicles that could be $300 mil. We may never know.

Have you heard anything about the final delivery date from your SA yet? Looks like our cars were definitely offloaded in Brunswick around last Monday. I’m still waiting.

Nice. Congrats!

I called my dealership. Guy was like “I was just about to call you this morning. It just got here the other day Waiting for you”.
Yeah, right. Hadn’t heard anything from him since the boat left Europe. I’m sure this isn’t normal.
But hey, the car will make up for it certainly
