Who else is on the Hojin? (NYK)

teodulog · 06-01-2006, 11:29 AM

Hey mikeymike aren't you leasing? Are all your mods easily removed? I had a couple of mods planned too, but nothing too extreme. Definately 19 Hartge replicas, maybe blacklines and rear spoiler

Here's an email I received from the Panama Canal Authority at 6:00 am this morning!! Panama is 2 hours ahead of Pacific time, so we should see her on the live webcam at the Miraflores lock @ 1:00 pacific time.

Subject vessel initiated transit this morning (it is in Gatun locks at this time) and is scheduled to arrive at Miraflores at approx. 1500 hrs this afternoon.

Cool. It's definitely through the Gatun locks already, and heading to Miraflores. As to taking 10 days to head up to Hueneme, it's currently scheduled for arrival sometime on 6/9:

Yea, I am leasing....all of my mods are definitely all easy to remove bolt ons. Even if I was buying the car, I would still make sure all mods are easily removed because selling a modded car is a big waste of money. No buyer is going to pay extra for stuff you got on the car, while individual buyers in the mod marketplace will definitely be looking for the individual stuff coming off the car.

Actually, she's right behind one of the WW ships carrying cars also, the Tamesis. You can see a tiny bit of the ship and the wake from it in the bottom lefthand corner of the picture.

MIKEYMIKE · 06-01-2006, 02:25 PM

Good eye, ghunger.

JMeezee · 06-01-2006, 02:26 PM

Awesome. Man, no one that was with me on the Ryujin was as crazy about tracking as you all are! You should all meet up for a drink and car photo shoot when all your cars are delivered!

Desert Bimmer · 06-01-2006, 02:52 PM

That sound like a fantasic idea....although I am in Tucson my roots are in Cali and I will be going there in a month or so for holiday!

If you go to the live camera of Miraflores now, you can see both boats. Woo! The Tamesis is the huge red one, the Hojin is blue hulled and slightly smaller.

AISLive now shows it as green and moving. Only 1 lock left, then it's on open water to Port Hueneme!

Desert Bimmer · 06-01-2006, 04:09 PM

What does the green mean?

As I understand it, speed is >= 2 kts.

Yellow = 0.1 to 2.0 kts

Red = stopped

Desert Bimmer · 06-01-2006, 04:13 PM

AIS Live is delayed. The lock were were watching it go through was the Miraflores lock which is the final lock on the Pacific side.

cool

That means it's now in the pacific ocean and off to the races.

I went and drove a used Z4 for an hour yesterday for fun. Needed that BMW fix, and the car was just sitting there on the lot heh. That's a sweet little vehicle, if I ever get rid of my motorcycle that'll probably be what goes in the 3rd garage slot...
