Tracking Olympian Highway

Starting this to track Olympian Highway. Left Bremerhaven on October 14 and currently in Southampton, UK. She leaves today, and the next stop is Baltimore on October 25.

Looks like it'll arrive in Baltimore 2300 hours on the 25th (making up some but not all of the lost time).

Looks like calculated ETA is still 26th. My car is on this ship.

I guess the best case scenario would be 2 weeks to take delivery in Chicago ? Thoughts ?

Do we know if they will fix the RAM issue in Baltimore or at the dealer in Chicago ?

Thanks,
TJ

They are fixing the RAM stop sales at the VPC (Baltimore). Two weeks would be optimistic, although not totally out of the question from what I have seen.

Should be docked in Baltimore (Sparrows Point) within the next couple of hours.

My car's getting off here and has the RAM stop sale. Who's with me?

Docking now! I have the RAM as well, but doing PCD. I’ll be on the boat another 5-6 days to Charleston. Keep us posted! Hope it’s quick for you.

May you sail through your VPC as quickly as some others have lately! Meanwhile, on to Charleston and PCD for me …

My current status is “At the Port”. Hopefully, they will fix the RAM stop sale soon.

She dropped off a few things in Baltimore

Just happened to stumble across that site. 443 BMWs and a ton of construction equipment. These carrier ships are no joke!
