Do you know another ship names and schedules after Elektra? Mostlikely, mine won't get on Elektra.

Here's a funny question, do the ships set sail at different times or exactly at Midnight of the day they are supposed to set sail?

In other words if the vessel is due out on 12-09-04 does the ship leave as soon as it hits midnight after 1159pm 12-08-04?

I'm sure there is slop in the departure times based on whether the loading/unloading is on schedule, tides, weather, and other shipping traffic in the harbor.

Great, thanks ///M Rakete. Looks like I really want mine to get on you Elektra. Still have slight chance....
For others info, here is my production history;

11/23/04 placed an order, and they modified existing order slot with my options. Got Production #, and checked at NA auto system, it says, "Your vehicle is scheduled for production with no confirmed production date yet", status 112.
11/24/04 Talked with NA rep, "Production seems to be in WK50".
11/27/04 "Your vehicle is in production, the estimated completion date is Dec 7, 2004", status 150.
11/28/04 New VIN pops up at OC web.
12/2/04 "Vehicle is in a body shop, with the estimated completion date Dec 7, 2004", status 151.
12/2/04 "Vehicle is in the paint shop", 152.
12/4/04 "Vehicle is being assembled now", status 153.
12/6/04 "Vehicle production is complete and waiting for the release to the carrier", 155.
12/8/04 "Vehicle was released to the carrier and waiting for transprtation to the port of exit", 160.

Hope it helps...

If you are able to get your ship's name from your dealer, you can track your boat's journey on a nice ocean map at:

Hope this helps,

Maersk Wind - Daddy needs a new pair of shoes!

I guess the last car loaded on the boat will be the first one unloaded when it arrives?

Odd that it's not a WW vessel. Sorry, no general arrival information.
