I feel like it has to be if the Sunrise is going to make it to Brunswick by the 13th as well as the fact that the other ships have been there for relatively short periods of time.

The anticipation of these two little tug boats passing all the other ships...Go little guys, make it to the Sunrise!

Just looked at my sheet and it confirms SSIPOA, that is Brunswick. Good call out mtoo

Only question now is, how painful will the offloading/getting onto a truck be? It is about a 6 hour drive from Brunswick up to Raleigh NC.

yep :/ missed the call, actually was doing work...sorry haha

EDIT: it looks like those little tugs are going back to do...something, maybe!?

Edit 2: aww hell, everyone on the sunrise is screwed, tequila is coming in and now that our cars have gotten a taste for it over the last month, they won’t want to leave while it’s there!

I feel like historically when they get the tugs out they move numerous ships in and out. Could just be wishful thinking and selective memory lol.

Edit: It looks like they are moving the Marigot out now...

It also looks like the Tequilla is currently waiting for this ship to pass.

Nevermind.

BMW is causing a measurable decrease in productivity on the East Coast, with all of us here checking constantly and calling the Genius lines.

I calculated a 0.0023% hit to the region's economy and counting. Offset slightly by all the parts I already bought for a car that can't get out of Mexico

The sunrise schedule shifted today by a half day from late Nov 12 to early 13th. Should be setting sail anytime in the next 12 hours. Hopefully it's just getting the last of our cars onto the ship before setting sail. I think anyone that has been in RFT for over a week has a chance, I just don't know what capacity remains, but it was good to see cars also get onto Toronto and Condor, so that should help.

From NJ to Boston, it is a 2-3 day trip by truck after unloading.

I am hoping for that too...but that assumes no port installs, fast port inspection, and nearly immediate pick up for transportation to the dealer. I'm in PA (roughly 1.5 hours from Newark) and I'm thinking Saturday or the week after...I hope you're right though!

I have no port installs and the commute from NJ to NH is less than a day. I would like to take ownership right off the truck at the dealership if possible.

Ok so it looks like we have our first ship coming into Altamira today (since I've looked) so things seem to be moving again this AM.
