Who else is on the California Highway - BMW 3-Series Forum (F30 / F32)

DigitalMPower · 11-24-2012, 12:54 PM

Who else made it on the California Highway, appears to be an express ship from the K-Line division

Left Bremerhaven 11/20
Left Southhampton UK 11/23-11/24

and is scheduled to make a stop in Baltimore MD before arriving in Brunswick GA 12/5/12

The wait is almost over

You can track its progress on - marinetraffic.com (It is currently off the coast of Southhampton heading through the English Channel towards the open Atlantic)

What a fine looking vessel she is.

mark.L · 11-24-2012, 01:34 PM

Roadcarver also made it on that ship. You guys can have a few drinks on that mean looking ship while we still await our voyage.

As Mark L stated I made the California Highway also

It's scheduled to come into Baltimore on 12/02, I so wish I was on that boat.

DigitalMPower · 11-24-2012, 02:53 PM

The boat is scheduled for the following:

Baltimore 12/2/12
Brunswick 12/5/12
Charleston 12/7/12

DigitalMPower · 11-26-2012, 12:36 AM

Boat must be in the middle of no where in the Atlantic bc it says out of range on marine traffic...not that it matters as it won't arrive until 12/5 or later

DigitalMPower · 11-26-2012, 08:05 PM

So here is an update from Nov. 25th via Sailwx as it is currently out of range for marinetraffic.com

You can track it on www.sailwx.info using the ships call sign 3FJL6

2012-Nov-25 03:26 N 49°53' W 004°13' (looks to be fluctuating from 15-18.5 nauts). Again this update is almost 2 days old so it should be out in the middle of the Atlantic, but this is the most recent report available.

Here is an image showing the California Highway from its start in Bremerhaven:

EnerJi · 11-26-2012, 10:08 PM

Thanks for the updates! I'm on there too, destination Charleston (per my vehicle status report.) Can't wait!

DigitalMPower · 11-29-2012, 10:35 PM

Should be closing in on the East Coast as it is scheduled to dock in Baltimore early Sunday. Everywhere I track it still shows out of range though

roadcarver · 11-30-2012, 06:40 AM

It looks as though the California Highway is running a few days late as their website now lists for it not to make the Baltimore port until the 4th and the port of Brunswick until the 7th. This is a couple days later than listed before.

DigitalMPower · 11-30-2012, 08:35 AM

Hmmmmm well damn, I was trying to track it and it shows out of range.

DigitalMPower · 12-02-2012, 04:27 PM

Position has not updated in over 7 days, figured there would be something by now...

Yeah, the sailwx site probably will never update until the ship gets within range again near the East coast. If it's ETA changes the K line website usually updates that change quickly. I would say it will be at the Baltimore port by the 4th like it currently states. I noticed that initially it was a little late leaving Bremerhaven which put it behind from the get go.

DigitalMPower · 12-02-2012, 11:44 PM

Hopefully that means it will update sometime tomorrow as it will be on the East Coast

roadcarver · 12-03-2012, 04:01 PM

Well it looks as though the California Highway is now even running further behind schedule. It now lists arrival in Baltimore on the 5th and Brunswick on the 9th.

DigitalMPower · 12-03-2012, 04:13 PM

Well that sucks and I thought she was lightning fast...

DigitalMPower · 12-03-2012, 07:21 PM

SHE JUST SHOWED BACK UP on marinetraffic

About 50 miles off the coast of Virginia Beach about to enter the Chesapeake Bay...

By using the tracking guide/waypoint estimator that the boat should be in the port sometime in the next 24 hours in Baltimore

Looks like they made up some time somewhere and are only a little behind schedule now.

roadcarver · 12-03-2012, 08:57 PM

Thanks, good to know. I will check it out.

X5Blair · 12-03-2012, 11:41 PM

Lets hope she moves fast without damaging the cargo. I delivered my M5 ED on 9/4 and don't even remember what she looks like!
