Good luck!

Let us know what ship it is. I thought there won't be any until 4/22.

Thought the same too after reading it in here. Will call genius some point today and let you guys know

So I just spoke with Genius and was told my boat was on Heroic Leader. Got picked up yesterday and scheduled to Port Hueneme on May 21. Seen anywhere from 4-6 weeks on these boats and I’m around 5. End of May was my delivery goal so I’ll take it.

Interesting, Heroic Leader wasn't supposed to arrive to Bremenhaven until 4/20. I guess it is early. The question is who else will manage to get on it. I can only hope but my car is at the port from 4/9 so if there is a backlog of cars from the beginning of the month, it may not make it.

The next NYK ship is Wild Rose Leader, leaving on 4/23 and then Asteria Leader, leaving on 4/28.

I got to the port around the same time. Fingers crossed we will manage to get on there also!

Just out of curiosity I checked where Heroic Leader is and it is not in Bremenhaven yet: https://www.vesselfinder.com/vessels/details/9441570

That said, they probably decide which cars will be loaded before it even docks so that is what you are seeing.

Actually, I called a Genius and a) he confirmed you may be marked In transit with a specific ship before it even docks, and b) the At Port status on the website should actually be "At port or compound" and that my car was not scanned at Bremenhaven entry yet. So it is either still traveling to port or not being scanned as being at the port yet.

Does the other guy have M4 maybe he got picked up in Belgium. I can’t see boat history only that it was in UK last but maybe was in Belgium before that. M3 gets loaded in Germany

For those of us that will most likely not make an April vessel, here’s what I’ve found for May so far.

Saw the same after I got off phone with him and was pretty confused. He specifically said was picked up on April 17 even though I see that the ship scheduled to be there April 19. Mine is a 25 M4 fwiw.

Still no sign of my car since arriving to Port Hueneme on 4/15. At what point do I start worrying? Hahaha.

Ya I’m starting to get antsy. I called genius and they didn’t see any red flags. Just a waiting game I suppose.

From what I heard it’s the dealer that requests truck transport from the port. But as u know what all these things lots of hearsay

Mine took about a week to show up in the Bay Area after it arrived at Port Hueneme.

Heroic Leader left Bremenhaven. Did anyone's status flipped to "In transit" today?

[rjb5183]

I flipped to "in transit" this morning. I called and confirmed that I am on the Wild Rose Leader (ETA to port is June 5).

Woohoo.......at the port? hmm how many days will it take to get through VPC and on a truck to the dealer which is about an hour and a half away. Really hoping that I can pick-up this Saturday

At the port means in Germany. Still a long ways from that lol.

[MellowAnteater]

I’m at port as well. Hoping to get on the ship that leaves on Friday. If not, looks like there are plenty in May.

this is the 2nd "at port". When the boat gets to the US the BMW tracker flips back to "at port". My car left Bremerhaven on March 15th on the Sumire leader RORO ship.
