Do you know of the boats going to west coast? If not then I’ll probably try to dig them up from some of the other threads

I know some of the east coast guys have been sitting at port for a few weeks. I hope it ends up being different for us on west coast

All I know is that there’s supposedly a boat leaving on the 23rd. LOL

Nice!
So we’re both looking at driving our cars out of the dealer possibly end of October - beginning of November?

Do you know how long the cars will stay at Hueneme once the boat arrives?

I’ve read that it takes around 1-3 days to leave the arrival port.

Man our cars are going to be filthy once they get to the dealer after all of this traveling.

Do you have any special delivery requests that you’re going to tell your dealer?
Example: no wash, keep plastics on etc

Probably will just ask for plastics to be kept on. But I think that is standard. Wbu?

I’m in Seattle, and I ordered from a SoCal dealership.. so I will have to wait for it to be trucked here as well..

My car is at the port since last week… checking daily to see if I’m in transit, but I know it probably won’t be in transit for a while haha

Wow nice! You got lucky and were able to get on a boat. I wonder if I was left behind or my status hasn’t gotten updated. I guess we’ll see.

Did you get a status update yet?

I called today and was told I’m on Apollon Leader. Estimated to hit the west coast on 10/24.

Mine just switched to in transit this afternoon! I wonder what boat I’m on.
I need to call BMW and they should know correct?

They might not be able to see it yet if your status updated today. I’ve heard it can take ~2 days for them to be able to see the boat after the status updates.

That is true. I will try calling tomorrow or Monday.

Hopefully the wait from now until the end of October isn’t too bad!

Nice. Looks like it’s at Bremerhaven right now. I couldn’t find an updated schedule for that boat though.

Is your car getting dropped off in Texas?

You know what good question… the dealer I bought it from is in socal.
I initially thought after stopping in Texas the next stop would be the Panana Canal.
But now I’m not sure.

I will verify with a BMW genius tomorrow.

If you go to this link and select “Vessel” and then “Jasmine Leader 012” it should be your schedule.

So it should be going through the Panama Canal and will be dropped off at Port Hueneme.
