Is it possible I could be travelling with the rich and famous :wink: ? I've been following your ED photos and am quite jealous. I should be at the port today and hopefully get on the Fedora.

Morgie2,

GET ON THE BOAT~

JLight, you said it!!

Since you're on the Don Q., does that make your vehicle the "Vert' of La Mancha" ? :smile:

ptack · 09-23-2008, 11:58 AM

I guess the good thing is that if I don't make it on the Fedora, the Courage is scheduled 5 days later. If I don't make that one I'm pissed.

NICE!

now get on that boat! :drinking:

morgie2 · 09-24-2008, 01:32 PM

Finally, officially made the port. I at least have a fighting chance of getting on the Fedora!!

morgie2 · 09-27-2008, 07:55 AM

:roundel: Well, I'm finally en route/in transit. I think I'm aboard the Fedora, but still not showing up when I check with the vin#. Both the 1-800# and the OC state I'm U.S. bound and the dealer estimates a New York arrival on 11/10.

hkwallace328 · 09-28-2008, 04:14 PM

no, the vin still produces nothing, but my dealer says it's due at the port in N.Y. on the 10th of October, so it has to be the Fedora.

oct 10th??? I highly doubt it man... if it is scheduled to depart at 9/30, there is no way it is getting into harbor in 10 days

achtungE30 · 09-29-2008, 08:18 AM

Wish I could join the club...I am on the Tom Barra

expected to be in NY 10/17.

??? 1st column is arrival, second is departure:

BREMERHAVEN GERMANY 22/09/2008 25/09/2008
GOTHENBURG SWEDEN 26/09/2008 28/09/2008
ZEEBRUGGE BELGIUM 29/09/2008 30/09/2008
SOUTHAMPTON UNITED KINGDOM 01/10/2008 01/10/2008
HALIFAX, NS CANADA 08/10/2008 08/10/2008
NEW YORK, NY U.S.A. 10/10/2008 11/10/2008

It's in NY on the 10th of October. I think originally it was supposed to be in on the 9th, but for some reason was delayed a day in Germany.

I just saw that....and I still don't think it makes sense:iono:.......that means it will be at sea (atlantic) 7 days....:iono:

never heard a boat that quick.

but I hope you are right and I'm wrong...that would put me in line for a late oct, early nov pickup! :headbang:

Looks like a crossing could be anywhere between 6 to 9 days, judging from the other ships schedules.

hkwallace328 · 09-29-2008, 12:11 PM

I am on this ship wow, it is updated on the WW site

morgie2 · 09-29-2008, 08:07 PM

Hey, anybody check the "vesseltracker" website lately? The Fedora has "disappeared". I haven't seen it on the map and it's supposed to be in Zeebrugge. WTF!!

Yea, it's there now. According to the voyage details, it left Belgium. I think the gps is a couple of hours behind. We're on our way to merry old England!!
