Anyone else at port?

I know it sometimes takes a bit longer for newly built BMWs destined for US west coast to get out of the port in Bremerhaven, so I'm not too concerned that my car is on its 6th day "at the port".

I think my SA may have been furloughed because he has recently stopped responding to my emails, so I am trying to see what I can find out on my own.

I've had some fun watching ships come and go at the Bremerhaven port and trying to figure out where they're headed. Thus far 6 have come and gone and 3 more are there right now. But non appear to be headed to Port Hueneme (although not 100% sure).

Specifically, I've been watching ships come and go, using https://www.marinetraffic.com/en/ais...53.575/zoom:15, and trying to figure out which, if any, are destined for Port Hueneme, using https://www.importinfo.com/search/ma...ee=&commodity= (which I know is historical manifest data, but I assume would help identify if any specific ship has a habit of coming to Port Hueneme, and hence may do so again with my baby aboard).

Just wondering if anyone else is in a similar situation, i.e. new order sitting in port, waiting for a ride to Port Hueneme?

Also, looking for anyone with recent experience who may have additional web sources to monitor? The awesome sticky post on order tracking has some now-outdated links, and it seems some things (like VIN search) are no longer available, due to policy changes.
