Welcome to the long, neurotic wait!

I wonder if the guys manning these ships know how many people are watching their every move?

Could be worst. I have two long waits for my 228i ED. First the wait from January to May 4 for the ED. Then the wait for it to get to the USA.

I don't think NYK Line has VIN checking for their carried cars, if that's what you mean.

Call the BMW NA 800 number, hit 2 and punch in the production number when requested.
If you get bad news, speak to a customer relations person. If you still get bad news, wait a couple of days and repeat.

If you still get bad news, well your car is not on the boat (repeat procedure with different boat)

Here is more than you want to know about the Demeter Leader's progress from Bremerhaven to its current position in the Pacific off Mexico. (Scroll up to top of linked page and also go to prior pages of link.)

For a sample, below the link is a photo of the Demeter Leader taken live off of a Panama Canal webcam Sunday as it was captured with your car in it while in one of the Panama Canal locks.
