We have a ship leaving today (Tugela) and one tomorrow (Hercules Leader). Hoping I make one of them. I’d take either but hoping for Hercules as it gets into port earlier.

I just made it to Peru. Maybe you’ll get there before me.

Peru? Did it not go through the Panama Canal?

This is what sucks. Being anchored 40 miles off a foreign port waiting to unload and get back underway.

Roll call on peeps that are still at port waiting for a ship headed for PH. I’ve been at port since 4/25. Anyone else get to port around the same time as me and still waiting?

I bet you’ll find you have either already left or on the Hercules Lead gets underway today.

I've been following along; the route is something else! I would also be pretty frustrated. It's almost better when the ship is not next to land so the tracking is not real time.

Home stretch now; 2 weeks and it will be in California.

I am at port waiting for a ship headed to PH. But, I didn't get to port until 5/8, so you are 2 weeks ahead of me.

I would ask BMW Genius. My tracker said I arrived “at port” on 4/24, the day after the Wild Rose Leader left. Then on the day before the Dione Leader was set to leave (5/14), it switched to “In Transit”. I thought that was strange since the ship hadn’t left yet.

So I asked BMW Genius, and they said my car was in the Wild Rose. It just passed through the canal, only about 2 weeks until my car comes in.


So maybe you are in the same “boat”, so to speak. Maybe you got on an earlier ship than you think, and your tracker just hasn’t updated yet.

Well Freesia Leader was in Emden and now it says it’s going to Bremerhaven. 🤔

Is my car not loaded on there yet, and just assigned to it? So odd. Either way, it still has the same ETA to Port Hueneme.

Hopefully it’s coming back to pick my ass up! 🤣🤣🤣

I called Genius and of course they have no idea why others have been assigned to a ship and mine hasn’t. Just have to be patient I guess.
