In case you don’t know - marinetraffic.com allows us to track ships. The Liberty has just left Bremerhaven, while the Apollon is still moored. Once a ship hits the open waters it no longer appears on marine traffic.
I don’t see my vin on ww’s site yet though. I heard it might take a day or two. |

hah, nice. now for the long, month-long slog across the atlantic. the last stop for this ship is in Tacoma, WA which is much closer to Portland - I wonder if they’ll drop my car off there or at Hueneme.

Last year, I remember the ship sailed to Japan after Hueneme not Tacoma port. |

The route isn't always the same with those ships. Some of them stop on the east coast first while others go straight through the Panama canal. Some ships go to Tacoma after CA, some don't.

I'm actually on Heroic Leader! Not sure where that came from, but I'm digging around to see when the ETA is!

It is sooner than I expected, I was expecting August, since unbelievably, there are still some folks who haven't even gotten their MY2019s yet. |

Do you mean "Glorious Leader"? That's the boat my car is on and supposed to arrive NJ on March 30.

I'm not in the hugest rush or urgency as I normally would be since I'll be away on work and won't be able to take delivery until mid May. But still pretty cool!

No - Heroic is a different vessel headed to the west coast.

Heroic Leader
Can confirm per my SA, my car is also on the Heroic Leader (NYK). It is scheduled to arrive at Port Hueneme on April 15th. ETA to dealership 7-10 days later.
Per MarineTraffic, the Heroic Leader is currently passing by Calais on its way to its first stop at Southampton, UK. |

https://f80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1181156 the build week you get is when the car is completed and rolls off of the production line. Based on where you are, there's quite a bit of waiting after that, as the car gets on a train to Bremerhaven, then on a ship to a port near your destination. |

I ordered on 03/11 (for delivery 07/23). My dealer fwded me an email they received from : BMWEuropeanDelivery@bmwna.com confirming my order. So right now I just research what I'm going to spend that week doing.
Anyone else going around the same time? |

Looks like I missed the current boat. The Olympian Highway just steamed out and I'm still unassigned. It looks like the next NYK to the east coast is the Horizon Highway leaving April 3.

Just found out I'm on the Apollon Leader! Anyone have any recommendations on which app to use for tracking the boat for iPhone?

While it's close to land, use the www.marinetraffic.com website. Once you know it's headed out for the crossing, use the FleetMon.com website or app. The app costs $7, but is convenient. Sign up for the unlimited trial and add the ship to your fleet. Once you can get logged in, cancel the membership and you keep the two week trial. It's around 10-13 days across depending on where it has to stop or it you hold for bad weather. Have fun! Mine just hit the port in Galveston this morning.

Called BMW Genius this morning. My estimated production date has slipped from 04/22 to 05/06 or week 19. To be fair I only ever got the 04/22 date from the dealer. So maybe that was never the actual estimated date.
