My baby is on the FAUST, left Bremerhaven on 9/20 but seems to have stopped in Sweden and Belgium first. I guess they're loading Volvos also. Sailed from Southhampton on 9/25 but is now in never-never land--not on the Wallenius site or on any of the vessel tracking sites. How would I estimate ETA in New York, and how much time from then to my dealer in northern CT? Salesman is telling me 1 month, but I think he's building in a big fudge factor.

Awesome addition to the Wallenius Wilhelmsen Logistics' fleet
The largest car carrier vessel in the world is the M/V Faust. Standing tall at thirteen storeys, this colossal 228-metre-long, state-of-the-art ship travels at an impressive 19 knots and has the capacity to carry up to 8,000 standard cars.
Wallenius Wilhelmsen Logistics' magnificent new carrier set sail on her maiden voyage from Inchon, Korea, on May 28th and onwards to Singapore. After sailing through the Suez Canal to Europe she crossed the Atlantic to finally arrive into U.S east cost ports between July 27th and August 3rd .

Expect one to two weeks after docking in NY. Ask your dealer to "Hot Ticket" the car, it may expedite.
What model did you get?
