I dropped off my car on May 9th. It is on Bellona that left today (May/17th). I was able to track Bellona at Bremerhaven through http://aisfree.aislive.com, and now I've lost it..
I am also scheduled on Bellona, and I dropped off my car at Harms in Hamburg on 5/9.
I was told that she should be arriving port on June 10th, and with any luck, we should all have our cars by the 20th or so!
I'm on Bellona as well - I dropped my ED car off on May 8 in Munich. The parking lot at Harms was overflowing with cars. My car is heading to Boulder as well!
I just checked AIS Live and there is no info on Bellona, however, I also checked the Jacksonville Port website and it shows Bellona scheduled to arrive on 5/28. Will keep checking....

I too left my 335i convertible at Harms - Munich on the 8th of May. The parking lot was completley jammed. And, it was pouring down rain. There was several folks in the office so I'm guessing I probably ran into a few of you.
Once the Bellona gets to Oxnard I have to wait for it to get trucked to Medford, Oregon. My dealer is telling me 10 days after the ship arrives. Let's hope so. I can't wait to get it back in my hands.

I just checked AIS Live (my subscription runs out on 5/31). The last position reported was just east of Jacksonville (presumably headed for the Panama Canal).
Can someone start figuring out where to get pics of the ship as it transits the canal? I know others have done this, but not sure where to look.
Thanks for the Panama Canal Webcam......does anyone have any info on when Bellona will transit? Come on now folks....I can't be the only one who is obsessed?

The canal transit has started. Here is a screen shot of Bellona's progress. It appears as if she is just completed going through the Gatun Locks. Sorry no webcam photo (must have just missed).
Keep your eyes peeled today for photos of her going through the rest of the Canal!
This is a series of pictures showing Bellona as she passes one of the locks (the ship on the left). I am not 100% sure, but I think this is actually the Pedro Miguel Locks (1st of 2 that transitions from Gatun Lake to the Pacific Ocean).

Hey mdm_boulder, I posted same stuff probably minutes before you. Same happened in the e90post...
Thanks for your efforts :thumbup: and please keep us posted with AisLive progress. (my trial with them is never going to happen)
Bellona is on its way. Its out of AISLive coverage for the moment and should be traceable in couple of days..
mdm_boulder could you please keep us posted?
Here comes Bellona!!!!!!!!

The other abbreviations appear to be additional cargo (not auto I'm assuming)
If Bellona docks tomorrow, do you think it's safe to say that we might have our cars by Friday? That might be wishful thinking, so I'm planning on the week of 6/18.
Based on information from many other Bellona BMW'ers...it appears that the ship has been off-loaded and the cars are going through the VPC at this very moment. Soon....Soon...Soon we will be driving our new vehicles!
Please post here when your vehicle is picked up at your dealer! Tell us how long from drop-off in Europe and how long from VPC to your garage!
Whoever said "patience was a virtue"?
