Anyone else on the CARMEN?

I'm hoping I got loaded on the Carmen. Doesn't look like its left yet, and the WW site doesn't have updated cargo manifest yet.
Anyone else in the same boat (literally)?

I really hope my car will be on that boat since it arrived at the port 3 days ago. Missing this one likely means waiting 12 days for the ELEKTRA since I don't see other boats going on the west coast.

Wondering how long it takes for W&W to update their cargo inventory with our VINs?

I don't see boats from k-line going to the west coast (unless I don't look at the right place) but found a few on NYK so the Meteor is another possibility.

It wont be K-Line...those are mostly East coast lines. Plus those ships above are container ships, not RORO's

I'm on the Carmen, due in Port Hueneme on the 25th. I tried to get the vin from BMW NA and they told me they didn't have that info, if it's on the vessel, shouldn't they have the vin?

Yup, the VIN should've been assigned already. Try calling your SA?

Anybody have a guess as to how long our cars will be at the port before they are released. The wait is killing me!

Been following the progress of the ship that arrived last week (http://www.2addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1000225)

Arrived at port on 7/18 and looks like first reported delivery to dealership was 7/21. 3 days from port to dealership for the lucky ones? Some are still waiting to be released (ED cars seem to take longer).

Carmen is just beginning the stretch of Baja California today!

Looks like Carmen docked at Port Hueneme earlier this morning: http://www.marinetraffic.com/en/ais/...mmsi:266339000

Hope our cars make it to the dealership by next weekend!

Mine still says awaiting carrier. I think it's because i ordered some performance parts to be installed and it also needs to be shipped up to Oregon. That's great news for you though!
