TRITON ACE continues to progress across the Atlantic at 18kts.
At midday she was N43.1 W22.2 about 800nm SW of Lands End
She is on schedule to arrive in Zeebrugge on 20 Nov and Southampton probably now on 23 Nov
GRAND AURORA At midday her position was N26.2 W60.2 which is about 430nm SE of Bermuda.
The weather continues looks OK for her for the moment.
Her ETA for Zeebrugge is 24 Nov and I estimate she should arrive in Southampton on 26/27 Nov.
TOSCANA She is currently heading north through the Suez Canal.
She is due to arrive in Zeebrugge on 27 Nov
GLOVIS CRYSTAL continues to make good progress southwards along the Mexican coast.
She is currently doing 16kts about 170nm W of Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.
I described some weather considerations for her yesterday but she is still maintaining her course.
Although she is still 2 days away the Tehuantepecer wind has started to develop as expected and is already blowing 45kts.
Her ETA for Balboa is 01:00 23 Nov and so I estimate she will arrive in Zeebrugge on 5 Dec and Southampton a couple of days later.
The free GLOVIS CRYSTAL competition is up and running! Enter

TANNHAUSER is currently crossing the Arabian Sea making 15kts with no weather concerns.
She will arrive at Suez on 25 Nov and Zeebrugge on 6 Dec.
RCC AMSTERDAM is currently loading alongside Pier 80 and I expect her to depart either later tonight or most likely early tomorrow morning - I will hopefully get a call later today advising me which it is.
I expect her in Zeebrugge around 8 Dec
GLOVIS SUN is currently on her way to Pier 80 and is due to arrive early on Thursday morning.
I’m not sure whether she will arrive on schedule because she is currently battling some horrendous weather with gusts of up to 60kts and waves of over 20ft high on her trip down from Canada.
I suspect that her Teslas will be destined for an Asian port.
GLOVIS CAPTAIN will be turning up at pier 80 later than I originally thought.
Assuming she pitches up directly after GLOVIS SUN I have revised my estimate for her arrival in Zeebrugge to around 17 Dec.
This could be it for Q4 since I can’t find any more ships likely to make it to Europe this quarter.
(Whenever I say something like that - a ship appears!!)
We shall see……
