Tortugas

hadeed · 03-14-2016, 06:01 PM

My vessel deserves it's own thread too

Who else is on board?

Scheduled for Baltimore 3/19, west coast 4/1

New west coast eta: 4/5

Taking delivery of F80 in Socal.

Same here. Taking delivery in Pittsburgh. Trying not to dwell too much on it at this point and failing.

Yeah it sure takes a long time for delivery to the west coast. The waiting is a killer. Like all the other members start collecting the mods

Suttree37 · 03-18-2016, 03:15 PM

Anybody have an update on the ships location? I keep checking marine traffic and it's status keeps saying "Out of Range" and the last location update was on the 10th. I keep seeing others post updates of their ship on here but I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong?

Tortugas is either in the Baltimore port or has already left. I'm guessing the next few days are going to be the most difficult part of waiting.

hadeed · 03-21-2016, 11:15 AM

Yeah, tracking says still in Baltimore.. 3 weeks out from the west coast

Kira407 · 03-21-2016, 11:35 AM

I'm onboard!!! Can't freaking wait for the first week of April to get here

Suttree37 · 03-21-2016, 11:50 AM

My best guess is Baltimore is roughly a 4 hr drive to my dealership. I wonder what's a realistic time I can expect it to arrive? I want behind that wheel...

I know the feeling, shouldn't be too long. Best guess would be about 2/3 days. I talked to my dealer last week and the ship is currently scheduled to arrive in California on April 5th and I'm in Vegas which is also about 4/5 hours from port. He told me it takes roughly one day to offload and go through customs then again roughly a day or two, depending on your add ons, to go through the VPC and get scheduled for transport. Then it's just the drive. So hopefully you get behind the wheel by the end of the week, good luck!!!

hadeed · 03-22-2016, 11:12 AM

Yup, delayed again...

Kira407 · 03-22-2016, 03:00 PM

She's on the move again, Panama bound!!!!!!

Kira407 · 03-28-2016, 10:29 PM

For those of you on the west coast still waiting, the Tortugas is going through the last lock in the Panama Canal!!! Soon to be in the Pacific and that much closer to Cali

Oh great. Don't rub it in. My M3 and some others have their M's at Bremerhaven still waiting to get on a ship. We could only wish for a webcam shot at the Canal.
