I'm on Otello as well, but I won't do the PC re-delivery until January.

Otello was scheduled to docked Nova Scotia today when I checked their web site last week. But now the web site has its schedule changed to tomorrow.

Does anyone know if they will be able to make up the time lost or if this is normal for a ship to be stuck at port longer?
Just wondering. |

yeah but you are in canada... I am in USA, wisconsin...
I assume the ship is on its way to NY now? the website states a 11/30 arrival date and the sailwx website stopped tracking the ship ![]() |

I hope so - I'm on there too! I'm in Milwaukee as well, so we should get our new rides about the same time.

My CA at wide world of cars in spring valley, NY says to expect to get a call on or around Dec. 6th. So with that if anyone else in NY tri state area is waiting on one, your date might be pretty close.

Any confirmation on the ship arrival?
I read in an article that the VPC will somtimes stay open on saturdays if there is a high number of "Priority One Cars" (cars that are already purchased), They said a Priority One Car takes at least 2 days to process. So if the boat got there today, cars at VPC tommorow, they work on them Saturday and Monday, ship Tuesday, the very earliest at dealer is wednesday. Here is the link to the story. http://www.autospies.com/news/Did-yo...-factory-1348/ Long story but I am waiting for a car to be sent to Long Island and then shipped dealer to dealer to Arizona. The wait is killing me. My wife and collegues are starting to laugh at me checking 3 times a day and trolling forums constantly, but what else am I to do? ![]() |

well according to http://www.digital-seas.com the otello has left NJ harbor..
![]() ![]() ![]() how long can a human go without sleep? just wondering... ![]() on a more or less sane note.. I was looking at the trunk mat and winter mats as accessories for the car initially since it is gonna be winter and snowy. should I call my CA early and let him know i want those in the car when I pick her up or do they have a stock of them at the dealer usually? just wondering.. ![]() |

It is International Autos. They told me it's due at the dealership on Saturday, and that they'll have it ready Monday or Tuesday. They're probably on the same truck - can't be that many coming to Milwaukee!
