 Looking for my ship...



Dropped off the car on 6/6 in Amsterdam. from here it's transported to Zeebrugge (Belgium) to be loaded on a ship with destination Port Hueneme, CA

Since BMW is no longer using Wallenius Wilhelmsen (but NYK instead), i'm unable to find on which ship my car will be on or is on.... I tried to search schedules on the NYK website, but there a no ships with a route from Zeebrugge to Port Heueneme....

There is a ship that match this schedule on the WW website:

ZEEBRUGGE 18/06/2005 -
PORT HUENEME, CA 10/07/2005 DON PASQUALE ED517-DOP 22

Is it possible that this is the ship my car will be on?

There have been numerous threads on this lately, and one asking almost the exact question. You should contact your drop-off location and ask them which ship you are on. Or wait for your boat notification letter (believe there is a thread with this title, just down a ways (as are all the others)) from BMW which will have your ship name and eta.

I would estimate the chance that your car is on that ship at 1%. It is my understanding that BMW/EH Harms are using NYK Line exclusively for west coast deliveries. You are probably on Phoenix Leader (Depart B'haven 6/27 - Arrive Pt. H 7/24) (45% chance), Aquarius Leader (Depart B'haven 6/21 - Arrive Pt. H 7/18) (25% chance), Sagittarius Leader (Depart B'haven 6/14 - Arrive Pt. H 7/8) (20% chance), a different ship (10% chance). Note that these estimated departure and arrival dates are from the Port of B'haven website. See E36M3r sticky above. You should receive your Boat Notification letter about half way through your voyage.

I believe you're correct for west coast deliveries but they still use WW for us right-coasters.

I'm on the Trianon which is scheduled to be in New Jersey sometime tomorrow. Who wants to take bets on how many times I check out aislive.com at work tomorrow?

I realized that WW was still used for east coast; thanks for the clarification.
I am betting at least once an hour.

I sent Wanda email asking what ship my car would be on (I dropped my car off in Amsterdam on May 26th). Wanda responded that it shipped from Zeebrugge on 6/10. The ship is the Sagittarius Leader. Hopefully your car is on the same ship.

The Sagittarius Leader is scheduled to dock in Southhampton England on 6/17 at 3am. That is all of the information I have been able to gather

Additional Info:

According to www.aislive.com, the Sagittarius Leader is entering the SouthHampton Port right now (5:30pm west coast). According to the SouthHampton shipping movements table it should dock at 3:15AM and leave at 11:30AM on 6/17/05 (http://www.southamptonvts.co.uk/com/smovements.htm)
