Those that have tracked their ship. Is this normal?

AHa0488 · 02-18-2022, 04:48 PM

It looks like the ship some of our vehicles are on appears to have turned around. Is that normal? Anyone see that before?

Ah, I didn't even think to check the weather. Does look like there is a storm blowing through right there. Thanks for the heads up.

springerdrive · 02-18-2022, 07:13 PM

Don't worry. It could be worse.

Definitely could be worse, but it does look like we're headed back to Bremerhaven.

TheKandyman · 02-19-2022, 12:22 PM

Looks like it turned around again and is headed in the right direction. I was hoping it would go back for my order which has been at the Bremerhaven port for 4 weeks now. lol - jk

Google "storm Eunice" to get an idea what's happening in that part of the world ;-)

That's the ship my car is on. What are you using to track it? I noticed the original arrival date in Belgium was today but now it's pushed to the 22nd.

I've been using vesseltracker.com Just Google Olympian Highway Vessel Tracker and it should provide you with a direct link.

I was in QC for over 3 months too and I'm still showing I need a RAM retrofit. Can't seem to catch a break.

Are you paying for this feature? Can you screen GLOVIS SIRIUS Path.

UWBadger · 02-22-2022, 09:03 PM

Mine did the same thing back in October/November. They'd go north and stop at a port, then backtrack to another port. Seems that they can get into some ports sooner than others and are ok backtracking. Doesn't make sense to me, but I got my car so oh well haha. I will say it's a fun process watching the boats…very memorable experience for sure.

No, I don't pay for this. Just use a search engine like Bing or Google or whatever, and enter the vessel name. I usually also add the word "vessel" to my search string. E.g. "GLOVIS SIRIUS vessel". Click on any of the many results. Some may be paid to see tracking maps.
I think my screen shot was from marinevesseltraffic.com which shows a decent map for free. E.g.
https://www.marinevesseltraffic.com/...9582/538006791
(the position in this link may be old when you read this, so you'd want to do a new search)

springerdrive · 02-23-2022, 08:28 AM

While tracking my ship, my favorite tracker was Maritime Optima. Register a free account and you get 20 free hits (this was enough to check twice a day until our ship made it to port). The tracking is very up-to-date, usually within 15 minutes. Some of the others, like vesselfinder.com, are often days behind. Another one that's not bad is fleetmon.com.
