Anyone's vehicle in the Centarus Leader? Do you know how to track it?

Vessel's call number?
What flag is it sailing under?

Thanks guys

Mine is on the Centaurus Leader as well. West coast shipment tracking is limited. NYK is the carrier. They do not allow their ships to be tracked. They say this is for security reasons.

I just recently researched this. You cannot track the NYK ship movements across the seas. The east cost shipments can be tracked since they are on a different carrier (Wallenius Wilhelmsen). They provide call signs which allow you to keep tabs via GPS tracking sites.

You can track the estimated arrival time via the San Diego Marine Information system. Currently showing the Centaur Leader arriving ETA in San Diego on 5/28. The ship holds up to 6500 cars so it may make a couple of west coast stops before reaching Port Hueneme. My dealer gave me a 31st port date. Then estimated 10-12 days to Oregon.

The waiting is difficult as it gets closer to D day!

My dealer tells me that my vehicle is in the Hual Seol but Eh Harms when i called said it was in the Cetaurus leader. Dealer says its expected to land on the June 5th, which is right?

I heard the ETA time now is 5/31 on the port. This is according to my SA which i m not sure if he knows what he's talking about.

Anyhow EH Harms told me ETA 5/28 but its around that time, a little more waiting my fellow fanatics.

Thanks

Ron
