This is not my ship (I was on Manon which hit NY on Sat) but thought I would try to help out here. I found the website for FIRST NY/NJ (firstnynj.com) by digging around some threads here and it seems to give good info. I tried typing Otello into the vessel search feature and it showed an eta of Feb 8 at 18:30. Now, this info has not been updated for a few days but might be something you guys want to keep checking as the ship gets nearer. Good luck!

My dealership emailed me this morning saying that my car will be at the port on the 7th...I sure hope thats accurate

Sounds right. Otello arrived at Halifax this morning and is not schedule to leave the port today until 4:30pm which would make that ETA of Feb 8th correct.

Great...

That makes the chances of it getting to my Manhattan dealership by 2/15 much slimmer

So much for my hopes to have delivery on Saturday..huh!

[TJW]

Besides the fact that I THINK the VPC only opens on Saturdays when there is some kind of rush. So the cars will potentially just sit there for more than 2 days until Monday.

Any truth to the VPC processing cars that have already been sold first?

I guess there is no way of knowing yet...

I am going on Vacation next weekend (of the 15th)

I was hoping to bring the car with me to Key West.

I just looked at the WW website. They changed the stop in Canada back to grey from red, with an arrival date of today. It does however still say that it is due in NJ tomorrow. Does this mean that we may still have a shot of it getting into port tomorrow, or have they just not updated it yet?

HALIFAX, NS CANADA 06/02/2008 06/02/2008
NEW YORK, NY U.S.A. 07/02/2008 08/02/2008

As of 12pm east coast time the Otello is here.

Dado - I'm having issues with GoogleMap. Could you post pic or write out the location and what you think that means for arrival date?

THANKS>

[Dado]

Can't do screen captures from work. Maybe someone else can help with that. Here are the coordinates.
N 44°37.218', W 63°30.707'

Arrival date is still a day late which is on the 8th (ETA 8/2/2008 5:30:00 UTC ). Still docked in Halifax

Thanks whady!

According to WW site, the ship has already left. The listing is now red again.

There is still hope !!

[Dado]

Here is the current position as of now, moving at 14 knots

Dado, I work for a dealership also and I was just wondering where you get your information?

Ship location? from ports and same links that has previously been posted on this forum.

[BMWMAINLINE]

Yes the locations, I saw you said you worked for BMW so I thought there was another place to find this info on our back end systems.

[NYF32DRIVER]

Im usually very good at this kind of thing, but I could not manage to get ANY of the listed ship finding resources to work with the Otello.
Just how are you finding its position on Google maps ?

J

[Dado]

both port websites and aislive

[NYF32DRIVER]

I was able to find Port of Halifax info a few days ago. Where do you find the port of NY/NJ ?

It's really the (almost) real time info I'm interested in anyway.

Do you know where the ship is now ?
