DAMN!

The 14th is Friday?? The ships position finally updated its position on marinetraffic.com, arrived in San Diego 12:23 last night.

She is on her way to Port Hueneme, currently in the harbor doing 10+ knots. She normally cruises, in open ocean at 16+ knots. She is 147 nautical miles from Port Hueneme, so how come the Port's offical time for her arrival remains this Friday. Hopefully that is a mistake.

There are currently no vessels scheduled to arrive at that port tomorrow, so when she arrives, they should be able to quickly dock her and start unloading. Hopefully that will be tomorrow (Thursday morning).

I just saw the log from San Diego port and it said that Dorado Leader's next stop is Long Beach. Can that be correct? Maybe thats why it's still do in Port Hueneme on Friday.

On the San Diego port web site ,the dorado leader is on his way to Long beach and ETA is 2:00 AM

elegant · 05-12-2010, 08:35 PM

Only 66 nautical miles from Long Beach to Port Hueneme. Anyone's guess as to how long in Long Beach? Still very hopeful that it will be in Port Hueneme tomorrow (Thursday).

elegant · 05-13-2010, 03:32 PM

She left Long Beach at 1:00 PM today. Should be in Port Hueneme sometime later today.

TurboHank · 05-13-2010, 06:01 PM

It is supposed to arrive at Port Hueneme around 8 pm PST.

Not yet. BMW is showing that the car is at the preparation center though. What are your dealers telling you?

My bmw account stills says the car is en-route. I don't think it got to the VDC yet. Damn.

Mine has been sitting in the prep center for two weeks now. Something to do with all the cars were shipped w/o power seat modules so they have to be installed at port. There's a huge backup so everyone's a bit aggravated at this point. Hope your cars were fully assembled at the plant!
