At Port

M3coco · 05-14-2022, 04:09 PM

I know there aren't as many west coasters here. But hopefully we'll all end up on the grand cosmos leaving next week. Fingers crossed. Let's keep each other updated

Scorviss · 05-14-2022, 05:46 PM

Subscribed! Was dispatched from factory and on the way to the port yesterday, also heading to West Coast. Seems it's luck of the draw with shipping, fingers crossed it works out quickly

West coaster here too. I was on a boat Monday. I'm not tracking stuff by the minute like most. But I hear that I may see my car around June 10.

That's great! I got to port on Monday, hoping to make the boat next week. I wonder if west coast bound is less backed up?

Nice! Ya, I have no idea what is going on with the shipping/production. There seems to be no rhyme or reason behind it. I had my allocation in early Feb. No movement until mid April but then it sailed through production and was on a boat before I knew it, and that included individual paint (not the readily available "individual" colors). I know others that have been waiting months at port. It's crazy.

I was at the port for 4 weeks, car got on a boat May 4th and its hit every port in Europe so far and still chilling in Europe.

M3coco · 05-15-2022, 06:19 PM

Looks like grand cosmo is in zeebrugge today, so should be over to Bremerhaven mid week, hopefully still. Maybe all of us waiting will hop on board

M3coco · 05-17-2022, 07:52 PM

The an anticipation of the coming boats is killing me.. Anyone else lol

Mookster · 05-17-2022, 11:11 PM

Sick, always some delay, shit whats about 2 to 3 days or months i already been waiting since August lol

Hey guys. I am a Week 14 build headed to Hueneme and then Colorado. My car was put on the Grand Cosmo. I was told by the Genius hotline that the ship departed Bremerhaven yesterday and is scheduled for arrival at Hueneme on June 16.

Interesting, because it's showing it just got to Bremerhaven this am from Belgium and will be leaving tomorrow. Also, it will not show in transit until about 48 hours after it gets on the ship, so you might want to double-check with genius or your CA, unless it got picked up from zeebrugge?

discountbarber · 05-18-2022, 09:50 AM

Very strange. Not sure what to make of this. I am definitely showing "In transit" on the website and the Genius was pretty unequivocal.

This might be a dumb question but... is there any chance I was loaded on the ship in Belgium? I recall reading something on the forums about cars being sent via train to other locations. Is it possible that I was shipped to the port at Zeebrugge via rail and loaded there?

Edit: I did some Googling, and I think what I asked about above might be what happened. Looks like BMWs routinely leave from Zeebrugge. To correct something from my original post in this thread, the Genius said the ship departed "port" -- not Bremerhaven. So that's on me, not him.

Oh, okay, I was just really confused, cuz I was super excited the grand Cosmos was coming to bremerhaven today lol But yes, I think there is a really good chance you were loaded in Belgium

M3coco · 05-19-2022, 02:24 PM

Anyone else at port going west coast?

Scorviss · 05-19-2022, 04:14 PM

Might just be me? Weirdly it took almost a week to get to port, was dispatached from factory last Friday, and today finally switched over to at the port. Looks like there's still 3 more boats leaving to the west coast in the next couple of weeks, hoping to get on one of them

+1, assuming that I will be at Port in the next day or so

SaMaster14 · 05-23-2022, 10:37 PM

I'm at port for a west coast delivery, too!

petrol_phxz · 05-23-2022, 10:47 PM

At port for 10 days now, missed the Grand Cosmo which left on Friday last week I guess so hoping to get on Tijuca which hit the port around 3pm PT today.

I've read in some thread here that WW is a preferred carrier. But at this point I think it's all a gamble.
