RCC ASIA is now in the English Channel, having picked up her European pilot off Cherbourg this morning and should arrive off Zeebrugge around midnight. Southampton is still confirmed for Friday morning at the moment but I would not be surprised if this changes to Thursday morning, or even earlier!
GLOVIS SIGMA She is just entering the Gulf of Panama and is on the home straight to arrive and anchor up at the canal entrance later. I expect her to transit the canal early tomorrow morning. I will post separately about the canal and how to follow the ship through the locks. Don’t forget to enter the GLOVIS SIGMA competition today as it will close as soon as she enters the locks tomorrow morning!
GLOVIS CLIPPER She continues her high speed dash down the Pacific coast with the aim of arriving at the Panama Canal on Thursday. She is due to arrive in Zeebrugge on 16 Sep. She is not due to depart until 14:00 on 17 Sep and so if she is coming to Southampton it will be on 18 Sep. Don’t forget to enter the GLOVIS CLIPPER competition!
GLOVIS CORONA is across the Bay at Benicia at the moment but I am not getting any indication that she will call at Pier 80. I therefore think we have seen the last ship to call at Pier 80 this quarter.
All is not lost as it looks very likely that Tesla have sent a shipment by rail to Newark for shipment to Europe from there. There is a lot of activity at the Milpitas railhead at the moment but no EU spec cars were noted there and so we may have missed the loading since they they have already stopped producing EU spec cars at Fremont. At the moment I am monitoring the ships loading at Newark with the aim of identifying the likely ship. I have already crossed ASIAN MAJESTY off the list and RCC AFRICA is the next one to monitor. ASIAN MAJESTY was disappointing because it was originally scheduled to be in Europe in 2 weeks time and she is still booked into Walhamn in Sweden on 16 Sep and so was looking very good - yet another major schedule change.
