WW Ship: MIGNON

gkmunch · 10-13-2011, 01:00 PM

Anybody else on this ship to the east coast? Looks like it's off to an amusing start.. lol

MAR · 10-13-2011, 01:24 PM

I am I think. Looks like they had a man overboard or something.

BallisticRedRaider · 10-13-2011, 06:55 PM

Yep I am on it as well. Very interesting route so far, hope its not late to port.

Damn dude... I'm thinking the ship captain was drinking

gkmunch · 10-19-2011, 08:59 AM

Phew, I guess they sobered up; looks like it's bookin' now!!

My VO 1M is on the Mignon as well....

Search youtube for "mighty ships faust" if you'd like to see a 45 minute long discovery documentary about the newest and largest RO-RO ship in the WW fleet. Pretty interesting!

Is it just me, or does it look like it will reach Nova Scotia way before it's scheduled to on 10/24???

gkmunch · 10-26-2011, 07:23 AM

Ooooooh yeah, come to papa!

pheller · 10-26-2011, 10:26 AM

In New York Harbor!

Nice!

Interestingly, my ED 1M cleared customs during the trip from Halifax to New Jersey, and as of this morning, the vehicle has been "Delivered" from WWL care to the BMW VPC.

If history is any indicator, the timeline of my 2008 135 re-delivery suggests I'll have the 1M at my dealer in Southern New Hampshire next Tuesday or Wednesday.

Pheller, how were you able to confirm the status change from WWL to BMW?

Go here:

Put your VIN into the "Cargo ID" field, click track.

The status events you can expect to see, in order from Bremerhaven to VPC are as follows, with my armchair interpretation of each:

Received at terminal - When the car made it to Bremerhaven and was delivered to the custody of WWL
Loaded on Vessel - Self explanatory
Customs Release - The time at which Customs gave permission for the car to be removed from the foreign trade zone
Liner Release - Unsure, maybe some synchronization between customs and WWL system so that the stevedores know they're allowed to discharge the vehicle.
Discharged - Removed from the boat
Delivered from - Tendered into BMW custody

The timing of "Delivered from" for my 2008 135i aligned with my CA's report that it was in process at the VPC.

If anyone has real descriptions of the steps, please speak up!

gkmunch · 10-27-2011, 12:11 PM

^^^ Awesome!

Mine was "delivered from" as of 8:00 this morning. Can't wait...

MAR · 10-27-2011, 12:15 PM

Thanks Pheller!

gkmunch · 10-28-2011, 01:54 PM

Ohhhh yeah:

gkmunch · 10-29-2011, 10:00 AM

Just got an email from my CA alerting me that the car is at the dealership!!
