No. Once the ships have cleared the canal the destination will be updated to Zeebrugge.
TRITON ACE has entered the Mona Passage.
She may come within range of a land based receiver and so appear on marinetraffic.com within the hour.
She's bang on schedule to arrive in Zeebrugge early morning of 20 Nov

Hopefully won't be too long a wait - the good thing is that AMBER ARROW has also been put on hold, so we can see RCC ANTWERP hasn't been singled out.
Looks like DC VLAANDEREN jumped ahead of HERMINE and ANTWERP. HERMINE now through the breakwater and hopefully ANTWERP will stop loitering and head on in before AMBER ARROW.
At least they haven't dropped anchor, which gives hope that they haven't been told it's a long delay.
Ah... I was wondering that. Each time it's been round in a loop I keep thinking it's going to anchor with those others.
I didn't know if they had the equivalent of aircraft put in hold before landing, as they seem to be going in circles like that.
Will it need a tug on the way in and through the lock? Are they waiting for something like that?
I know that there was work going on earlier today on the Vandamme lock, my guess is that there is a problem with it.
Meanwhile over at Pier 80, GLOVIS CRYSTAL has arrived.
I wouldn't expect her to depart for Zeebrugge until at least Friday night.

Here's the notification of the work on the lock

Seems that all the ships that have been on holding pattern through the night are finally picking up pace and heading towards ZEE now.
RCC ANTWERP is having a rendez-vouz with WIELENGEN PILOT to drop off the channel pilot (or take on board another one for the docking locks if that is needed)

And here she is! Caught on cam. Hiding in the dense channel fog, that is. Being supported by a tug, VB EMOE.
A delay of 12 hours will be very hard to make up and so I expect to see her Southampton slot amended later today
The Brixham pilot will remain on board and so this would be to board the Zeebrugge pilot.
Mr Miserable, the amount of detail and effort you go to with these shipment updates deserves some sort of Tesla Medal of Honour!
It's made the ordering process that much more exciting so, thank you!
