I was optimistic and assumed My F30 was on the Don Juan.

But, nope; California Highway it is!

Thats good bro, california highway is the express boat. you will have your car sooner.

justinnum1 · 10-05-2012, 10:18 PM

Well, some not so great news. Looks like the California highway is now estimated to get to brunswick on 10/9 instead of 10/8. Bullshit.

Is it stopping in Baltimore first? I ask bcause Kline Florida highway did the same last week. It stopped in Baltimore first and got to Brunswick a day late.

Thats a great question. The other kline boats say they are stopping in baltimore first, the claifornia highway on its schedule says it goes to brunsiwck first. check it out.
It makes no sense lol. the last cali highway voyage like a month ago went to baltimore first than Brunswick. this one says it goes to brunswick first. my dealer says the boat is supposed to get to brunswick on the 8th, which is what the kline site said until it got update the other day to be a day late(the 9th) Probably tomorrow night it should get back on marine traffic site and i will get a good idea, also the marine traffic site says the destination was brunsiwck, dont know how accurate that is.

Anyone else that was on this boat have a clue what the hell is going on?

It was expected in port at brunswick on the 8th.
Then it got updated to the 9th(guess it was running late)
Now i cant find it on either ship tracking sites.

Any updates?

germany.

Just called dealer and didnt get as much info as i wanted, but he said the car should be at the dealer on the 15th or 16th.

Last update - 11d 10h ago, on September 29. Two days after it left Bremerhaven. Nothing since.

ETA at Brunswick was two days ago, but no tracking info.

Lost at sea? Who knows.

jbbrann · 10-10-2012, 04:41 PM

Apparently there has been some problem with ships around Brunswick reporting position. I recently observed the same thing with my car that was on the Topeka a few days ago.

wait what? a problem with the ship? or a problem with the ship reporting it's location. Kline sucks ass, their ships are fast but their tracking capabilities blow.

Ive been on the marine site frequently the last few days and it never once reported in. My dealer said they should be getting the car on the 15th or 16th, but the way things have ben going, i woudn't be surprised if its more like the 19th or 20th.

justinnum1 · 10-10-2012, 06:57 PM

Update\
Looks like the ship got depalyed another day. Fucking ridiculous

Was supposed to get to brunswick on the 8th, then it got pushed to the 9th, now they are saying the 10th. Probably won't be getting my car till next weekend at this rate. Nothing has gone smoothly

justinnum1 · 10-10-2012, 11:31 PM

Another Update

Finally showing up on MArine Traffic and heading away from Brunswick

It says destination
Destination: BRUNSWICK USA
ETA: 2012-10-08 01:00 (UTC)

My guess is it already offloaded becuase its close to savana and pointed in that direction, will probably have a better idea in the morning but this is great news

You will get your car on the 17th.... LOL! I know you have some port accesories that need to be installed. My dealer(same as yours) always promised me the car on the 10th and I got it on the 4th!

Dealer(CA) always kept me in the loop. He told me It would get there earlier than the 10th. He told me when it got to Brunswick. He told me when it cleared the VPC. He actually called me when it was on the truck. He took pictures when it arrived(with the plastic covers and shit). He took pics when he filled it up with gas.... he e-mailed me the pics before I picked it up!

They have all that information readily available and if they dont keep you in the loop change CA's....

Damn, who is your CA? mine is pretty awdul, like i call the guy and he clearly cant be bothered with my questions(douche bag). I have to call the sales manager to get any info on my car. I wish my regular guy never retired

Anyways, cali highway just showed on radar and looks like my car got off loaded at the port earlier today. Hoping it makes it into the vpc before they close for the weekedn but right now its looking like mid to late next week. No worried, i got a long weekend of work to keep me occupied, but seeing all these pics of eb2 on this site isn't helping the wait

Talk to Les next time... he is good shit. Been there a long time.
From my experience once it clears the VPC you get your car in 2 days

It's worth the wait!
