I did some searching and there seems to be only one vehicle transport ship currently on it's way to Halifax by the name of Faust but it looks like it departed from England so it doesn't look there is already a ship bound to Halifax from Emden that you car might have got on already.

The Delhi Highway has an ETA arrival in Halifax of May 8th and the Hoegh Bangkok ETA is May 18th (+/- a few days).

Well that settles that! I’ll play devils advocate and go with the May 18, add a couple of weeks to get it to Ontario, and June it isM. Thanks for the research heymoe!

Mine just left Emden yesterday on the Viking Conquest.. ETA to my unload port in Jacksonville is May 20-ish. Then add transport to my dealer so I'm expecting an end of May / early June delivery at this point also.

Well the Delhi Highway just left and I don't think my car made that one either! Hoping it makes it on to the Goodwood...

EDIT: I reached out to Vincenzo on AZ and he informed me that my car did make it on to Delhi Highway!!! Current ETA to Houston is May 17th
For whatever reason the dealer system has not been updated, so if you are expecting your car to be shipped but your dealer is not showing a vessel number, then reach out to Vincenzo as he has more up to date information than the dealership.

Sounds like we're on the same schedule for delivery. Woot!. Vincenzo is a great source of info for orders. I feel bad for how many times I've bugged them about mine

The Viking Conquest has entered the dead zone, as in no position updates, on the free ship tracking sites. Hopefully it will pop back up in a few days when it gets closer to the East coast.

Send Vincenzo a quick message. They normally get back to you the same day.

Vessel 266 = Siem Cicero. It looks like it arrived at the Halifax port this morning.

Here is the list of ETAs for the ports it's traveling to:

Houston: May 6th
Veracruz: May 8th
Jacksonville: May 14th
Davisville: It looks like it's not stopping there this trip or my list has a type-o since it says Jan 17th. Maybe May 17th if type-o?

Since they are in Halifax right now, the above ETAs might be in the wrong order since it would seem silly to go from Halifax to Houston first, skipping Jacksonville until later but who knows.. I don't run a shipping business so there could be some logic to this. The new Import and Export schedules have not been posted yet for this week to see if something has changed.

Your noted ETA to port of June 6th seem a bit off based on the schedule I'm seeing. Weird. Maybe dealer added a buffer to not get your hopes up if the ETAs are missed by the shipping company.
