did anyone catch a ride today on the Elektra?

I was hoping to get on that one, but I can't get anything with my vin number at the tracking website...

did anyone get on that ship? that would confirm that my car will in fact have to wait another week at Bremerhaven...

Mine didn't show up on the shipping site until a couple days after the ship left port. So you may be ok. To give you an idea though, my car was shipped 10 days after completion.

The web site is :

http://schedule.2wglobal.com/AppTrac...trackType=Auto

go there and enter your vin. It won't be on there until your car has been shipped though.

Thanks. I've got a little bit of a wait until I get a VIN. It is supposed to be going into production this month but I don't know when.

I bet you'll get a nice surprise when you wake up in the morning and check the WW site.
It's like Christmas when you are 8 years old all over again.

My car landed in Halifax on Monday and am hopefully close to being on a train by now.
I won't see my car in Vancouver until the first week of May so you guys on the Elektra will unfortunately be mid May.

Yes. That means you have been loaded on the ship in Bremerhaven on April 17th, destination Halifax.
Your car will be in Halifax on April 30th.
If you click on the Voyage number it will give you the Port details.
