Yay that's awesome! My mini has a friend already (i'm so proud!). He/she should get off in NYC since it's going north, and I'm expecting to pick it up around the 22nd. So glad it made it on! And congrats to getting yours on too!!

Here's some prelim. stuff I found. There is also a really detailed post SOMEWHERE on NAM that discusses a live feed (name might be AIX something or other. . . I haven't had my coffee yet!)

Having your MINI BOOKED and RECEIVED AT TERMINAL does not ensure it being LOADED on the specified vessel. Some MINIs have even been LOADED only to be REMOVED and then BOOKED on a later departing vessel. To avoid frustration, check to see that your MINI is still LOADED a day or two after its intended vessel departs Southampton.
Other interesting information listed on the Cargo Status History is Vessel, Voyage ID and Booking Number. Clicking the Voyage ID will display the sailing schedule for your vessel. You can also go back to WW Cargo Tracking after your vessel has sailed and then track by Booking Number to find out how many other MINIs are onboard with yours. For those with too much time on their hands, visit this US Coast Guard site to find your MINI-carrying ship's "call sign". Then, with the call sign in hand, visit the Ocean Weather site to look for your ship's call sign and current location at sea by scanning the Marine Observations pages.

Humph the Coast Guard site link doesn't work! I went to their main site and think I found it though
http://cgmix.uscg.mil/PSIX/VesselSearch.aspx
But the weather site is kinda strange and I can't find my ship :(

I checked the WW site this morning, and there it was - Marvin will hopefully be departing Southhampton on 8/9/07 on the TAGUS!!! Voyage details say it should arrive in Port Hueneme on 8/28/07. How long does it usually stay at the distribution center? I will be picking him up in Portland, OR, so I'm guessing maybe the last week in September? We will be out of town for the middle two weeks of September and it would be agony knowing that he was just waiting at the dealership for us to come and take him home!! Will he know how much we love him if we can't make it to pick him up right away?!! I don't want to emotionally scare him for life!!!

Of course our babies will be on the Tagus! I just ignored that part of the document. I'm sure they don't really mean it!
There's a sticky posted 1/24/04 by Dave about a tour of the Port Hueneme a group took. Lots of good info!
(and DON'T blame me for anything upsetting you read! It's not my fault!!

Did a little more digging, I think the week 28 group. A portland pickup listed out their delivery schedule - Port 7/24, Rasmussen 8/02, Picked up 8/03
So - my estimate (earliest) is Port 8/28, Rasmussen 9/06, pickup +1 or 2 days, depending. Unknown - will they drive thru or take Holiday break on the 3rd?

I'm 99% confident that this is the tracking for the Liberty. It's updated every six hours.

I found how to track ships at sea, I think. http://www.sailwx.info/shiptrack/index.html I located TAGUS off Baja CA on Jul 24th. Might not be very satisfying to track my baby with this site.
I also found http://www.southamptonvts.co.uk/com/smovements.htm that is supposed to show ships at the Southhampton docks. I can't find TAGUS in port. Don't these people know that my MINI obsession must be fed?:impatient

It shows that the Tagus is scheduled to arrive at 2AM on the 9th and depart at 6pm on the same day. According to the voyage schedule, the boat is in Zeebrugge, Belgium right now although I can't find it on any of the european AIS sites. It should show up on http://www.aisliverpool.co.uk/curren...ap=southampton once it gets done eating waffles.

I got the dates by going to http://schedule.2wglobal.com/AppTrac...trackType=Auto
then type in the VIN in the Cargo ID box
then click on the Voyage ID number which brings you to the port, arrival, and departure schedule.

Good Morning 31s! Did anyone dream of Minis last night? Did anyone else sleep badly? (Girlcavity- I almost something around midnight, and thought, "Nooo, better not." Now I feel better!)
Checked the Tagus schedule. . .it has departed Zeebrugge.
Now, raise your hands: how many of you had never heard of Zeebrugge before July? Me neither!
smaine- can't wait to check the live port sites you listed!

So Tagus has left Belgium! Do you think our MINIs will have chocolates waiting on their pillows? heheheh Last night I showed my husband the ship tracker, and he was blown away at the level of detail we have available to watch the progress.
