I'm with you, brother. But just think, we're running two days ahead of the Manon, which is supposed to arrive on 10/15. That puts us into port on 10/13... a day early!

So did anyone get a chacne to take a screen shot of it going through the panama canal? Or has it not crossed yet? GO HYUNDAI!

No, it crosses on the 5th.

I must've missed something. How exactly do we see it going through? Is there a webcam somewhere?

livecam. probably a little delay. anyone know what time it's going to cross or is that not determined yet. I'll wake my ass up in the middle of the night if i have to in order to get a screenshot. i need to make sure there's no cracks and leaks on the vessel, knawmean.

Cool, thanks for this info! Would love to see the pics on this. Looks like the bridge camera is down--hopefully we can get an image tomorrow.

i wonder when the window of opportunity is to take a snapshot of the ship going through the canal. anyone know? or do i have to check the site every 5 min. i hope not.

Joonsup · 10-04-2007, 01:08 PM

I went to the panama canal site, and the vessel is no longer on the queue. I think may have crossed and I missed it

uh oh. so maybe i did get the right picture yeah? is that the size of a cargo ship carrying cars? i think it does, but I may be wrong since it's moving away or toward the docks

jtmccabe · 10-04-2007, 05:13 PM

Hmmm... I guess the scheduled slot is guaranteed but the ship can go early if there's another open slot.

We can just pretend that joonsup got the right pic. If not, so what? Our boat should arrive TWO days early, kids!

After all this time I still havent spoken with my CA since mid August to confirm my car is on this ship. haha. If i find out that it got delayed and somehow got on a ship that's due to arrive end of the month, there's gonna be some serious sh-t going down. j/k

That vessel is carrying my early christmas gift, gentlemen!

devisional · 10-04-2007, 05:18 PM

Awesome. that's probably the best xmas gift you've gotten... unless you're paying for it yourself. then it's just a big hole in your wallet. haha. As for myself, this car is a "i'm tired of driving a pos" gift for myself. Granted it's gonna cost me monthly, but my dream of driving a bmw is coming earlier than i thought.

Did you call the 800 number a couple weeks back and notice when your car went to "in transit" status? That should give you a pretty good idea which boat it's on.
