Nice! Thanks blue1! Keep us updated with screen shots. =D God knows I have nothing better to look at in these last few days before the car arrives.

Does that position look like it will be on time to SD?

Thanks blue1!

MDCTFTW · 05-05-2008, 10:35 AM

Any updates? =)

blue1 · 05-05-2008, 11:18 AM

AIS has the Gurs at the old location and no new info. I would not expect any new positions from AIS until Thursaday Friday. I had a look at Islode which is a couple of days ahead of Grus and it still shows the last known position of Isolde at the same location as Grus but on May 1st. Once Isolde hits the radar again it will give a good indication of when we should see Grus again.

MDCTFTW · 05-05-2008, 12:08 PM

Ah ok nice. Thursday Friday I hope Grus has docked by then!

blue1-can you keep an eye on the Panama Approach for Pacific Breeze for me? She is my final ship to track. She is due into the PanCanal Atlantic Anchorage some time tomorrow.

Yes. I just checked and it is due at the Panama Canal at around 1pm today. I will keep an eye out and post on the Pacific Breeze thread.

Great. Thanks a lot!

Anyone know where Grus is?

Also, looks like BMW just jacked the prices a little on these - could amount to about $1000 for some people. I guess we should be glad we all ordered when we did.

Grus is about 3 days behind Isolde. Isolde arrived in So-Cal this morning so based on that we should see Grus Friday/San Diego and Saturday/Port Hueneme. The ships don't appear on AIS until they reach San Diego. It's the same old waiting game.

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu uuuuuk!

According to http://www.sdmis.org/schedule/

Grus to arrive: 05/08 17:00, but in the "Sailed/ETD" column it reads 05/09 16:00

Guess she will be staying overnight?

Based on the last update on AIS I think we should be right on sheduled to be off loading the vehicles on Saturday at PH. Hope we get through VPC fast.

I think you may be confusing the two ports. It is scheduled for 5/8 in San Diego and 5/10 for Port Hueneme, which is ~150 miles further north.
