I think the CP Highway is leaving soon. I just received an update from MarineTraffic that the ship is destined to arrive at Baltimore on Dec 3rd. First stop.

Thanks @yman182 ! Keep posting updates!

Vessel finder now shows Cape Town Hgywy will heading to Baltimore with an ETA of 12/3. Still moored in Emden. Draught now at 9.3 m ( from 8m) so it has taken on quite a few cars.

Game on - CP Highway left mooring and heading out

Route Forecast from MT - mostly similar to route of SFL Conductor other than to Halifax (so can use my Conductor track timeline as a decent proxy as to position timing across Atlantic):

And free (estimated) route forecast from myShipTracking is Dec 2 in Baltimore - def packed her tight as pretty much at max. draught!:

Slow but sure!

Land ahoy! - well maybe a bit premature

Current weather conditions and position - looks like a storm/depression is predicted to move into it's path over next day plus before making it's way to Halifax:

Cape Town Hwy entering English Channel soon

Cape Town Hwy entering English Channel soon

@astrojeff ETA keeps getting earlier!

 

[ciaranob]

It will update real time based on ship's progress - about to play chicken with the ferries

Anyone on the CP Highway have their TYD show they are on Vessel? Mine still shows that the car is at Emden.

Thanks for the position info. Good stuff.
Any reported changes to Halifax ETA? I believe the Nov 27 0500 ETA probably came from the ship crew because it was what marine traffic showed while the ship was still moored at Emden.

In my case, on SFL Conductor, TYD did not show on vessel actual completed until day after ship departed Emden.
Actually, we should all relax. Porsche is as anxious to get our money as we are to give it to them.

No. Mine still shows car at port, but ETA in JAX was changed to 12/17. They have not been updating the steps regularly. My overview still shows car is scheduled for production.

Haha, I am sure they are anxious to get their money before year end! TYD may be the best/worst thing any car manufacturer has ever put out. I am probably spending 40% of my day now checking it and tracking the boat...as if it that will magically make it go any faster.

Indeed - these are just calculated forecasts so not exact - based on current satellite based progress I'd say an earlier arrival evening of the 26th is not out of the question.

As you know Fleetmon and MT require upgraded reg to see ETA predictions but myshiptracking has the following from the near last terrestrial AIS position in the Celtic Sea and indeed a calc. that puts her in Halifax on the 26th - but who knows - this storm might also slow her down over next 48 hrs.:
