It should be only a few hours journey from Long Beach, so that'll be weird. Hopefully it's not going to anchor off the port all day tomorrow..

Boat is almost out of the port now.

That would make sense based on distance. MarineTraffic is showing arrival at 23:59 UTC still which is 5pm. Perhaps it hasn't displayed the recalculated arrival time yet.

Hell yeah! With the biggest pinch of luck some of us may see our cars by the weekend, if not, next week!

Fingers crossed it's this weekend. Not sure how much more waiting I can take lol

GoldfishTX · 08-02-2022, 08:17 AM

It does look like we're waiting offshore for a bit this morning. Not sure why, as the port doesn't look extra crowded.

Has to be waiting on something. Once that boat docks the charges from the port start rolling in.

Headed to dock 4, and the ship that was there until yesterday is gone (Iris Leader). Maybe just waiting for people to show up to work this morning.

petrol_phxz · 08-02-2022, 09:30 AM

little frustrating but its ok. I'm just so excited at the possibility of driving my car next week!

Could be waiting on whatever load it will be leaving Hueneme with (if anything).

mr.winwin · 08-02-2022, 11:16 AM

Here is an old video of BMWs getting offloaded at Port Hueneme to help us imagine the activity there today.

SaMaster14 · 08-02-2022, 11:45 AM

We're so close yet so far!!

I actually have a service appointment for my current M4 before it goes back at my dealership tomorrow, so I will absolutely be asking if he has any updates.

Hueneme/Oxnard is only ~35 miles from my dealership!

Sonic M4 · 08-02-2022, 04:27 PM

OMG now its ETA is 7:43 tonight

edit.. now 5:43

Was really hoping my 5pm estimate was wrong and unloading would be underway early this morning… guess it sadly might have actually been more accurate than we all wanted.

Boat appears to be moving again, so that's good.

petrol_phxz · 08-02-2022, 04:50 PM

Must have been waiting on something.. So glad its on the way in now!

Anyone know if the VDC is a 24 hour operation? Hopefully our cars will get there tonight and breeze through and off to trucks tomorrow!

GoldfishTX · 08-02-2022, 04:51 PM

Yup. Moving again. Very strange given the port slot has been open all day.
