No, the Carmen is Wallenius. I didn't see the NKLine but it sounds like it is also making 3 stops in EU and 4 in the US.

The slow boat to Tacoma....

Lol! I’m enjoying watching my ship inch it’s way across the Atlantic! Almost as fun as watching paint dry!
I’m trying not to open the fleetmon app every hour!

That makes two of us. At least my ship is out of the English Channel and in the ocean and making its way across.

There's a good chance that the car will get off the ship in CA and make its way up to WA by land. At least that's what happened to my previous car.

I'm in Redmond, WA too and also ordered an M340i. Made it to the port on 4/3, so we're probably both on the Carmen :-).

You should use their version of the Android app with enhanced functionality. It is a much more featured experience that allows you to set the engine control to flank speed...

On my prior vehicle, they offloaded in CA but the ship was not slated to continue to Tacoma. It turned around and returned. In any case, welcome aboard virtual shipmate!

Of course, given how bad traffic through Tacoma has been and the new reduced speed limit, the boat might be faster.

Do you work in Redmond?

How accurate is the online production status? Mine has been on Quality Check for almost a week.

For the most part, mine was fine on the factory status. It went a bit off (2 day delay over the weekend) for the update when awaiting rolling on to the ship.

Just blazing along at ~15 knots...The grass on my lawn seems like it is growing faster.

Right there with you. I've been at the Port for about 10 days. West Coast delivery.

So I called a bunch of times. They kind of said there may be cars in your batch that have issues or need parts. I was dumbfounded. She then said not your car but a car close to yours. She also said she could never tell me the vessel name. First time I’ve heard anything like that before.

I’m east coast delivery non priority color. Bought the car on the 1st and it was born on the 10th. Ever since then Dispatched from Factory for 9 days.

For the west coast, I know someone else that was stuck for 10 days until they discovered that their vehicle had actually been dispatched.

I envy you. Tomorrow morning we reach Panama. If I am lucky I will be able to catch the ship going through the canal.

I went to At the Port status finally! You have any changes?

Yes, after two weeks, I finally got to "In Transit." Now I have to figure out which boat I am on. I'm guessing it will be shipped to West Coast in about 30 days or so.
