Did you see the Jupiter spinning in circles just outside Southampton?!..
I was worried the ship was in trouble

Mine was suspected to have been on Cepheus leader with another member here.
I was stoked to see it was en route to US yesterday, but my CA confirmed with me that it is actually on Jupiter leader... bummer

Mine was sailing past Plymouth England on Thanksgiving day. Little bit inverted from history, but still humorous to me.

I just checked on the location of the ship my car is on. looks like its about 100 miles south of Nova Scotia. Probably about 500 miles from port. I'm guessing I'll be taking delivery the beginning of next week!

[BMrDrmr]

On a side note the Glovis Century is 16 NM from Paradise Ace. 15 NM from Jupiter Leader

Looks like lots of cars will land at about the same time.

That's too funny... about 1 hour apart at their current speeds.

Week 45, Released to Carrier 11/3 Arrived at Port 11/25

As of today, still not assigned a vessel. Hopefully, I get on the Dec 7 boat to Brunswick.

Otherwise it will definitely be 2021 before I take delivery.

week 45 build. I'm currently tracking mine which is on the Polaris Highway bound for Brunswick, Ga with an ETA of Dec 11th. It should be at my dealer within a week after it docks so I can pick it up before Christmas.

Was having a chat with my SA this morning and he said that cars have been all over the map at customs and VDC. Had a five series get stuck there for 3 weeks. So he wasn't willing to be confident on the usual 1 week from dock arrival to dealer for me based on recent months.

My SA said similar. He advised to not book my paint correction/ppf/ceramic install until he could get confirmation on delivery.

I always chuckle to myself when I open the forum on my computer and everyone's location is super obvious. It would be nice if this were visible on the phone app.

Nice. Looks like the guys at the port are going with the last in first out technique
