My car finally shipped. I haven't had much luck finding the ship though.

I've checked NYK Line, WW and PSIX and can't even figure out who owns this ship.

Anyway, I'm hoping someone knows of a way to find the boat.

I ask because I've noticed that WW ships usually take 18-19 days to get to Charleston whereas some the NYK Line ships are only taking about 9 days.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

BTW, I believe the callsign for the Franconia is DNAO

Great info! Thank you!

The link says it's a "K LINE ship so I went to their site. Is this the same ship:

http://206.103.2.35/sailingSchedules/voyag...ProdInd=prodInd

It says it's the "YM Milano" but it's a K LINE ship that left Bremerhaven on 2/23 and is expected in Charleston on 3/9.

No the YM Milano is a contaner ship:

The Franconia is a Vehicle Carrier:
http://www.dbh.de/index.php?id=151&L=0&ste...uche1=FRANCONIA

It looks like the K-Line site is wrong both ships arrive on the same day:
