I just missed watching the Platinum Ray go through the Miraflores Locks in Panama. Had to go pick up a grandchild at school; when I got back she was gone into the Pacific....

Jenben, I haven't seen any boats going to Galveston. I'm guessing maybe they're aren't enough cars heading this way. Not sure but whatever the case, we found out today that my car is going to Brunswick, GA. Now if only we could get on an actual boat to make that trip! There's a boat heading that direction tomorrow so here's to hoping!

Well Rupert is supposed to be at port!!! I was tracking the Dover Highway and when it got close to Brunswick it said out of range! I hope that means it didn't get hijacked by pirates! Haha!!!
It's no joke that the last two weeks are the hardest! My MiniPerson said it takes about a week from port to the dealership... Let's hope it's the 5 day week and not the real 7 day week!

I got a call from my dealer and they said my MINI Countryman is ready for me to pick it up on Monday! I'm so excited!!!
Curious though, the MINI owner's lounge still lists the status as "En Route to VDC" and the ASK MINI hotline system says the vehicle is in transit. I guess those systems a bit behind...

Yeah it has been a long time. Being that it's ready now is a big surprise as I wasn't expecting to pick it up until the end of February. The main delay was that the dealer had only so many slots to place orders for MINI Countrymans at the time I went in to put down a deposit, so I had to wait until they could place their next order.

My MA said it would get to the dealer 'a few days' after arrival in port, unless the VDC finds a problem. After it gets to my dealer (in Sacramento), in addition to pre-delivery inspection they are installing mud flaps. I would guess a few more days, depending on how many new cars they get and how busy the service department is.

There were quite a few updates once it got to the Panama Canal. It moved pretty quickly through there. Now it is once again out of range while in the Pacific...

The ASK MINI robot changed its message overnight. My car is now in transit! No telling what ship. I'm hoping it actually left on the 15th on the Turandot or Sagittarius Leader, but MiniMouse17 said there's a ship leaving today too, so maybe it's on that. I have an email out to my MA to try to find out for sure. On to the next step!

Oh interesting, it looks like the Sagittarius Leader is K-Line, so maybe there is hope for me yet! Thanks for the info! Keeping my fingers and toes crossed!

does anyone know what ship(s) go to baltimore? my MA said thats where the countrymans (countrymen?) for my dealer has as their port of entry. wondering transit time, etc.
i wonder how healthy it is to obsess over these things as much as it seems we do. oh well... all of it will go away when I'm driving in my MINI!!
