That would make sense given the itinerary.

I did a little research on K-Line.? My dealer said my ship was headded to Panama.? K-Line doesn't go through Panama.? I also suspect, the K-Line ship ports at Houston and then ships its cargo over land to the other ports.

Here is some earlier research that I did when my car was lost. It explains what happened when some of the contracts were taken from Wallenius and who delivers BMW where.

Update: I spoke with my dealer the other day and he told me that my car is on the Capricornus Leader, a vessel operated by NYK Shipping Lines. It is scheduled to arrive in Oxnard (?) on October 18th. My dealer expects it on his lot by October 25th, though this may be optimistic given some of the hold-ups people have reported at the VPC.

I haven't been able to track the ship as NYK doesn't offer any tracking services. Just need to keep my fingers crossed that it doesn't sink between Europe and here!
