Default December deliveries for NA

I believe I have located the ship mine (and possibly Shadow's) as well as any others due around end of Dec. We all know they have been arriving a couple to even 4 weeks early of late. I located the Courage - she is currently en route to Bremerhaven, Germanydue there at noon today. From there she is due next in Brunswick, GA - USA.

I'll keep an eye on her as well as tracking any others which are car carriers and slated to leave Emden/Bremerhaven, and arriving in Brunswick/Houston

Cool and congrats! I hope that's your ship and I hope her captain likes to go fast so your car arrives early!

sweet! I'm pretty sure my S4's gonna be on that boat, too! I was a little disappointed when I checked with me SA about updates and the ship date was pushed back to 11/20. I'm hoping for all of us that the ship makes it to the states early so we can take advantage of the tax incentive.

Where are you located? There is a high chance you will get it before 12/31. Sounds like you are on this boat as well, it's due in to Bremerhaven 11/18 at noon, 2 days to load is sounding correct for a 11/20 sail date.

Unless you are in the SW, you should get it easily by ~12/14. It's a 13 day journey from Bremerhaven to Brunswick, this puts it into port on the east coast on 12/3. I have a tenative delivery date of 12/7 to port of Houston, which also lines up taking into account unload times in Brunswick at the dock and sail time to Houston.

She is making good time, and I like that she is called Courage.

Now lets hope we are getting on her. I'll be pinging my SA tomorrow to find out a ship name for verification I hope!
