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:

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

have your vin# show up yet? i am hoping to be on this ship as well, i was week 38 production

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

AchtungF80 · 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!!
