Courage - Ship

NJ328I · 01-18-2007, 10:48 AM

4 days till it hits the port!

beemah · 01-18-2007, 07:13 PM

can the total horsepower on the ship move it faster????

NJ328I · 01-18-2007, 07:37 PM

I wish, the wait is killing me. Time is not moving fast enough. I want my car and I want it now!

beemah · 01-19-2007, 11:29 AM

i think the ship has been delayed by a day

Why's that?

(Why do you think that, not why is it delayed...)

BCI · 01-19-2007, 01:24 PM

If you look at the ship's schedule, it now reads...

Port Country Arrival Departure

NEW YORK, NY U.S.A. 23/01/2007 23/01/2007
BALTIMORE, MD U.S.A. 24/01/2007 25/01/2007
CHARLESTON,SC U.S.A. 27/01/2007 28/01/2007
BRUNSWICK, GA U.S.A. 29/01/2007 29/01/2007

On the first page, someone posted the schedule where it shows the arrival in NY as the 22nd. The rest of the dates seem to have remained the same though.

davhern · 01-19-2007, 03:17 PM

Gotcha. Thanks.

beemah · 01-21-2007, 10:06 AM

ugh- it sux though. it might be arriving early in the morning hopefully

beemah · 01-21-2007, 11:01 AM

gettin closer.......

beemah · 01-23-2007, 09:43 AM

its now the 24th!!!!

NJ328I · 01-24-2007, 08:07 AM

Hopefully today's the day our cars get unloaded. Does anybody know how quick the VPC usually turn around cars to the dealers? I'm hoping I can pick up my car on Saturday, but I think it's a long shot.

beemah · 01-24-2007, 08:41 AM

my ca mentioned it takes up to 3 days - so i would say, if not friday, probably monday

efrazer · 01-24-2007, 10:49 AM

yes maybe monday or tuesday at the lastest.

NJ328I · 01-24-2007, 11:09 AM

Thanks fellas. Hopefully I'll pick up my car early next week then. It would have been nice to pick up on Saturday, I wanted to enjoy the car before I had to take it on work commute.

beemah · 01-24-2007, 12:02 PM

ha - nice one, sounds like me!!!!!

well, dont know about you folks, but i have become numb!!!!! to all the delays!!!!

U2 song - zzzz,zzzzz, zzzz, trrrrr, Im feeling Numb.......

I don't think they get unloaded until they arrive in Charleston. Not NY.

davhern · 01-24-2007, 12:13 PM

beemah · 01-24-2007, 12:20 PM

dont think thats correct mate, NY/NJ is a port for unloading auto cargo and processing

https://www.firstnynj.com/

go to vessel activity and search

also try this one out

Contradict yourself much?

Anyways, if you track the cargo, it says it's headed for Charleston. That also happens to be where BMW has it's US manufacturing plant.

I hope you guys are right though. I would love for it to be here a few days earlier than I expected. That's what I was hoping for in the first place (that it would be unloaded in NY).

Edit - OK, I just had a brain fart. The VPC is in Jersey. YES

Don't understand why it lists the port of destination as Charleston on the tracking site, though. Whatever.

beemah · 01-24-2007, 04:23 PM

ok ok - the ship stops at both locations.

see on this website
http://schedule.2wglobal.com

cargo tracking - auto cargo

mine says

Booking Number : Bill Number : DE553981

Vessel: COURAGE Port of origin : BREMERHAVEN

Voyage : EB702-COG Port of Destination : NEW YORK, NY
Priority : Customer Ref. Nbr:

also, if you click on the voyage

BRUNSWICK, GA U.S.A. 31/01/2007 31/01/2007

there seems to be some cargo getting of in NY, and Charleston.

Of your in IL - wont Charleston be closer then Ny?

davhern · 01-24-2007, 08:20 PM

Charleston may or may not be closer, but the sooner it got off the boat, the better. It'll get here faster on a truck than staying on the boat and being at sea another 5 days.

Oh, well. Seems like I'm screwed with having to wait for it to get unloaded in SC.
