Shows a new level of obsession with tracking one's car

Ok Ship has now left French Polynesia!!!! 10 days to go till she reach's Brisbane Water...

NB. I do feel somewhat embarrased given the photos and mapping that other forum members are using to track their ship.

LOL.. my wife thought I was nuts when I'd say to her "hey, we went through the panama canal yesterday!" or "New Zealand tomorrow!"

Swallowtail... it was this post of yours that inspired me to take some special effort of tracking my ship through the Panama Canal... Here's the video I made...

You're not a true tracking nerd unless you see it coming off the ship.

I get my new car on Saturday. It left Germany on 10 June. The time between unloading and delivery is the worst.

Not long for you to go now though. Enjoy!

Any clues on how long I should expect to wait between the ship docking (Port Kembla) and the car available at the Sydney dealership? Not that I'm holding my breath ...... much!

i am going through this painful process right now....Ship landed week ago last Sunday and will then be moved to the dealer holding yard and then 3/4 days to prepare the car for me. In all, 3 weeks from when the ship landed to when I am LIKELY to get it. In the mean time, interest rates went up another 1/2%..not happy.
