In the port where it unloads?We seriously need a webcam over the port of Zeebrugge!
In the port where it unloads?
Would be awesome! But it is never, as in never going to happen!
I've been there at the port, security is very tight - which makes sense considering how much value i.e. cars are sitting dockside.
I took pictures of a Tesla-Ship that had just arrived there, over a fence - security called out over a speaker, which I didn't realise was what happened until security came up to my car to ask what I was doing. "Sorry officer, I'm just a ship nerd that tracks ships with Tesla cars onboard" - everything was okay then, and he asked me to vacate the area, which was public but really only used for port activity.
In San Francisco it's all going Pete Tong. Plans are unravelling.
GLOVIS CAPTAIN's unloading at Benicia will be delayed.
The ship ahead of her CAPRICORNUS LEADER will not be ready to depart until tonight.
The planners are looking at whether to bring GLOVIS SUN in now. Like right now.
Some key personnel are still working and others have been called in to sort it out - it's still the wee small hours over there at the moment.
I suspect we may have to wait until teatime (UK time) until the definitive plan is agreed, in the meantime however, hurry up and wait.....
I often wonder whether anybody bothers to read my posts!
Yes. Yes, we do. So much so that I've noticed the predicted ETA of the Grand Aurora in Southampton has been pushed back a day or two!I often wonder whether anybody bothers to read my posts!
As @RubberToe has spotted when something is going "Pete Tong" it's rhyming slang for going 'a bit wrong'.
GRAND AURORA is interesting because I was in two minds earlier today whether she will make it to Zeebrugge on schedule and I decided I would make the call tomorrow. She is scheduled to arrive in Zeebrugge at 21:00 on 24 Nov. The trouble with that time is that it doesn't take much of a delay for the ETA to slip to the next day and making it sound much worse than it is.Yes. Yes, we do.

Makes complete sense.GRAND AURORA is interesting because I was in two minds earlier today whether she will make it to Zeebrugge on schedule and I decided I would make the call tomorrow.

The trouble with that time is that it doesn't take much of a delay for the ETA to slip to the next day and making it sound much worse than it is.
Anyway, as of a couple of minutes ago, by my calculations she had 1906nm to go. If she maintains her current speed she won't arrive until 11am on the 25th however if she increases her speed to 19kts she can still arrive on time.
Tomorrow we will be in a better position to call it. I suspect however that she will slip to the 25th.
I am aware that she is showing on the Zeebrugge arrivals board as arriving on the 25th but I tend to treat that source with a pinch of salt.
My ETA for her Southampton arrival of 28th remains firm at the moment. That is, of course if she comes to Southampton - not guaranteed.
I do read your wonderful posts Mr Miserable. So much information, I really appreciate it. Thank you.I often wonder whether anybody bothers to read my posts!
