Looks like we have as our leader with a production date of 9/15 and TyKa1999, calbears, myself, lpayne8 and FLWolverine at the end of the group all with 9/22 completion. Looks like in tracking some of you, and I don't have full details, but there may have been a little slowdown because of the weekend (in particular mikeyyy003) but I'm excited that dkm808 went from paint booth to dispatched in two days! My one fear is that all of us finishing on 9/22 might get slowed by the weekend for being dispatched. I'm really, REALLY hoping to make it on Drive Green Highway which leaves on 9/26. REALLY hoping that I get to the port and get on that ship.

Where is everyone else headed to?
Pls do tell….and ty… new york

Yeah, looks like boat leaves tomorrow which I think you probably won't make. That's the Themis. Arrives NY October 8th.

Don Pasquale leaves October 4th and gets to NY October 22nd.

Awesome, so you're the second of the group. Both of you dispatched 1 day after scheduled completion. not bad. Hope they work the weekend!

Was hoping I’d get bumped up as I’m going to west coast, really wanted 9/23 ships but that’s not gonna happen. My best chance now is NYK line that leaves 10/5 and docks 10/28. It’s going to be a lonnnng wait at the port. There is a WW line that leaves 9/26 but doesn’t get here until 11/6 so really hoping they don’t put me on that! Bad build timing for west coast people not a lot of ships!

Great stuff! It’s crazy how fast I moved after the paint booth! You’ll see it. I’m heading to NY port so our route from Germany to USA is limited this month but on October we have 5 vessels! But dates keep on changing everyday!

Called the Genius this morning and the rep could not give me a vessel name. Then she told me that the vehicle could sit at the port for a month or two. Calling the Genius is like trick-or-treating, you never know what kind of candy you will get.

Haha. That's typical. With Porsche, I didn't get notified that the car was shipped until the boat was about 1-2 days off the coast.

But because I'm such a psycho I knew what all the vessels scheduled in and out of the port so I knew what ship i was HOPING to get on and I had made it. For you, you should be able to figure it out by looking at W-W, K Line and NYK shipping schedules based on your final port.

I have an idea, just want to double tap w/ them. I'm thinking and hoping it will be on the first vessel heading to Port Hueneme.

Looks like the next ship leaving is the Donnington then, on 10/3?

https://www.klineglobalroro.com/sche...f_schedule.pdf

next one up is the aforementioned Don Pasquale, which makes more stops. Hope you get on the Donnington, it'll save you a week.

Nice! Looks like you're leading the pack of the 9/22 end date-ers.

You won’t know you’re on a ship until AFTER you’re on the ship. The status on my car didn’t update until a day after it left the port.

Anytime. Don’t lose faith!

I have horrible luck and I got on a ship after 3ish days of being at the port. I think you have the advantage of the recent factory break on your side, so cars aren’t stacked up yet at the port. If you can get to the port two days before the ship leaves, I bet you make it.

Totally speculative and wishful thinking on my part, but it happened for me.

Thanks, yeah my M4 got to the port on 9/18, so I figured the chance was pretty good.
