matt_435xi · 03-19-2007, 07:34 PM

sorry, that is before my time scuba steve.

and in case you didn't know, scuba steve is from the movie Big Daddy that many people my age (28) enjoy. so any steve i meet, that i deem is a good guy, i nickname SCUBA STEVE! so now you know the origin of your name! its all coming together now!

benMW holla · 03-19-2007, 07:40 PM

wait matt, does the #800 still say your at the port awaiting a vessel, no shipping info available at this time?
because this could mean i am on the otello as well...
and now that would be just great considering weve all been here since the begining bonding so our cars wouldnt be so shy on their first day of kindergarden... so to speak...
uhh nothin... totally akward rant...

sorry about that guys

matt_435xi · 03-19-2007, 07:44 PM

call you CA bro! the 800# and OC still say awaiting transport, gotta love technology! my CA confirming i was on the Otello was great news today, but what was even better is that it is coming 2 days early, 3/29!! my CA says they sometimes come in a day early too! he is way too optomistic, cause he was like you may take delivery next weekend! sorry to get you guys excited, that is a real long shot...but taking delivery before Easter is VERY possible!!

Say cheese!

matt_435xi · 03-19-2007, 07:54 PM

plus the name fits you pefectly as you are a cargo ship tracking guru. you must have scuba equipment with the reports of your vessel!

scb · 03-20-2007, 06:32 AM

my car finally showed up on the wallenius site. i'm on the otello

javabmw · 03-20-2007, 07:02 AM

1800# finally says I en route - whether it is the Otello, Atlantic Concert, or Courage is yet to be determined?? Yippee!

trifona · 03-20-2007, 07:17 AM

I am on the Otello!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Matt, did your CA really tell you that you'll be getting your car by Easter? I was told 2nd or 3rd week of April back when I ordered the car. Time to put in a call to him.

Guess I need to sell my Audi ASAP!

So a boat's cargo can show up a couple days after the boat leaves port?

your dealer was being conservative. it should only take 1 week to get your car when arrives at port. you should get it 1st week, absolute worst case early 2nd week! Good Luck!!

Hmm....according to the Order Tracking Guide sticky, cars usually spend 7-14 days at the Preparation center after being unloaded.

maybe its because i am not too far from the port? but local dealers in the philly area usually have it within the first week. if you are a Pri. 1 which most of us are, it will be there in 1 week or less. just my .02

"The boat left Germany on 03/18/2007 and ETA at the port is 03/29/2007.
Which means your car should hit Devon sometime between 03/31/07 and 04/03/07"

Uh Oh!

matt_435xi · 03-20-2007, 12:05 PM

anyone tracking Otello's location?

benMW holla · 03-20-2007, 12:30 PM

when i go to auto cargo, http://schedule.2wglobal.com/AppTracking/cargoTrack.do
what part of the VIN do i enter... last 7 digits or all of it? I would like to have made the Otello rather then just leving port today on the Courage....

STE92VE · 03-20-2007, 12:40 PM

The complete VIN..it does take about 48 hours though to show up.

Not I.
It's going to Sweden, Belgium and England first before crossing the Atlantic. I'm going to check it out again around 03/30 when it's suppose to dock in Halifax.

Doesn't look like that many made it on board as VIN numbers show up now.
