All Aboard the Tortugas **Who's MINI is on it??**
I found out today my JCW is on the TORTUGAS....lets keep this thread going to help pass the time.
The ship is due in Georgia on October 28th..my stop. But there are 2 other stops before that. One in Canada and the other in New York.
This site seems to not work from time to time so you may have to check back.

Also onboard the Tortugas disembarking in NYC for the NJ VDC. My MA is holding out hold that I'll take delivery of my Mini by Halloween!
One of my friends keeps reminding me of the fate that befell a certain ship that also sailed from Southampton in 1912. I tell him that if the Tortugas hits an iceberg and goes down I'll sing "My Heart Must Go On" until a replacement Mini arrives. Since that probably wouldn't be until 2009 I remind him he might want to wish the Tortugas a safe journey............

Tortugas spotted in Halifax Port on http://ais3.siitech.net/VTSLite/AView.aspx
still scheduled to depart today, 10/22. Next stop New York Harbor and the NJ VDC!
btw... Tortugas is an appropiate name for one of these vessels. max speed is 18-19 knots which translates to 21-22mph to cross the ocean with... zoinks.
