It's funny you say that. I was thinking that for a while today, but I just don't know how the salesman could be wrong. It's not like he has to pick a ship from a list and follow a chart, I presume it simply says the name right next to it.

Maybe it is the Swan Ace though, it does say the 18th...

Just called the dealership and some other guy (not my CA) said it is supposed to dock either today or tomorrow, but didn't know the name of the ship (ARRGG).

Boy, if that is true, then I have failed my own thread!

We'll see...

Well, don't kiss me off just yet Rich, I still don't have a confirmation on this info. Besides, I find it hard to believe that Eluder and I are the only two on the Swan Ace! Either way, I think you are stuck with me for the duration as there is no thread for the Swan Ace and too late to make one now!
Besides there is someone on here that can tell me (CHRISCHEUNG) what all this stuff means on the PoH Schedule:

601/BMW/nor/pt. amer

I get the 601 BMWs, I don't get the nor/pt.amer

Thanks,
Leslie

Anyone else who is on the Welkin, what does your dealer's VPC arrival date say?

Here's what my CA sent me on Tuesday. She previously stated I was on the Welkin:
Hi there,

I just checked on your cute little car and looks like it is still set to arrive in California on the 18th. We will see what happens on Wed, hopefully they will update the system once it hits the ground.
Let me know if you have any questions.
Have a great afternoon!

Greetings from m3post land.

I'm on this vessel as well and my CA has been saying the 18th as the arrival date. So either it's landing in San Diego and coming up north by truck or he doesn't know about the delay.

BTW thanks for all the tracking info! You guys are like hawks made of awesome.

My CA say" Your Machine's ship is scheduled to arrive at the port in Oxnard California tomorrow the 18th of June. This means that I should have it sometime between the 23rd and the 28th of this month."

arrive at the port in Oxnard California?
Is that port hueneme?

Is it just me, or did that pic say DESTINATION: Newark??

Well now again, I am totally confused! It seems to be pointed in the wrong direction too! Maybe we were all on the Swan Ace and just didn't know it (except for Rich, were you planning on going to New Jersey some time in the next week?)

Wikid, can you post another pic in a couple of hours to see what direction she is going in?

Fingers crossed everyone, either:

#1) going to Newark NJ or
#2) going to Long Beach and then Port Hueneme (Oxnard) or
#3) getting ready for a full night of poker

Any bets?

Leslie

Wikid, If you get a chance, could you possibly post a tracking pic of the Swan Ace? That one should be at Port Hueneme right now.

Hi Wikid,

Well at least we look like we're heading in the right direction. Could you please tell me why she is yellow? Is she anchored somewhere playing poker?

Well in any case, we are or will be unloaded by this time tomorrow. So hopefully, we will all have our cars by next week this time. The wait is almost over!

Thanks for the pictures Wikid, have a good night.

Leslie
