Exactly! On mine and many others ive seen, just goes from at port, to in transit, to at dealership, to delivered. Might be different with m3 vs m4?

Anyone waiting for a ship, it looks like the Figaro just moved into position to start loading up before she is underway tomorrow. Really hoping I’m on this one.

Yes, me too, as it’s the fastest path to my destination part. Although donnington by Kline was in Bremerhaven a day or two ago so I assume many BMWs will be on one of those two leaving tomorrow for east coast destinations.

How fast have you folks been getting on a truck after being “dispatched to the carrier”? My SA said this was the status on Tuesday and BMWgenius said the same on Wednesday with a date of May 9th. I can’t imagine it would really take a week to find a truck to go 75 miles but it looks like my hopes of delivery tomorrow are gone

Maybe canal delays. Panama has been having droughts and the lake in the middle of the canal has had low water levels lately, causing major delays in the canal. The lake water is what is used to raise the water levels in the locks, and on top of that low levels in the lake means some larger/heavier ships with deeper drafts can’t pass through.

For those waiting at port to get assigned a vessel, looks like there are four ships going out next week:
  • Morning Lynn May 14 -> Jun 20
  • Dione Leader May 14 -> Jun 5
  • Graceful Leader May 15 -> Jun 7
  • Hercules Leader May 18 -> Jun 20
