The one I'm seeing is for July departures from Emden. The August load pdf should be available soon. Also, where is your dealer located? That will determine which port destination to line up for the correct roro carrier ship to track on the marine tracker website. Also, be aware that once you ID your ship and it gets outside of the tracking area from Emden, you won't see it again until it gets in range of the tracking area in North America.

Ok thanks. My dealer is Raleigh, NC so I assume Brunswick, GA port.
The cool part is tracking the ship from Emden to Brunswick. Once you've identified it as yours, if you zoom in to the ship on the Marine Traffic map (when visible within range of the AFIS system), you can actually see it moving every few minutes. (Exasperating if you see the ship sailing in circles near the arrival port for awhile as mine did). Great fun. Not as much fun as getting the car though. :) Good luck! Here's some shots I took at the Davisville, RI port. I would imagine Brunswick is very similar. https://www.audiworld.com/forums/sho...8053&styleid=6 |
Cool thanks. Yes, I replied previously in that thread :)

This is VERY cool! If I'm right, my Q5 is on the "Bangkok Highway" and currently sailing at 17 knots through the English Channel. :D
|
Mine is on the Bangkok Highway too! Scheduled to be in Brunswick on the 12th of August. :)

The August schedule hasn't been posted yet, but my RS5 is scheduled to be loaded today, destined for Toronto via Halifax. Looking at the Emden port map on http://www.marinetraffic.com, I see there is one vessel moored at, what appears to be the Emden Autoport destined to Halifax, "SEVEN SEAS HIGHWAY".
So we'll see if my theory is right after they publish the updated schedule :) |

7. The ships can get delayed. Cougar Ace got delayed at Zeebruge and Halifax for a total of 3 days. Many of the RO-RO carries are owned by either Wallenius-Wilhelmsen, Hoegh Lines, or Mitsui OSK lines to name a few. WW lets you track by VIN number so you can actually track your car by VIN for free. The Cougar Ace is owned by Mitsui OSK which does not allow public VIN tracking, but if you know which ship you are on, you can track the schedule here.
