2020 Shipping Movements

[Tonybvi]

For the GLOVIS SUN she heads off to the Middle East with all sorts of European cars, vans, tractors, cranes and earth movers which she will pick up from Bremerhaven, Hamburg, Antwerp and Southampton. They are kept very busy.

Ah, that'll explain a lot then!
The crews going down with food poisoning and having to stop mid-Atlantic after eating raw rotten fish.

(You have to have been to Norway and been offerred (and tried) this stinking Norwegian delicacy!)

Lived in Bergen for 5 years where the raw rotten fish (actually Lutefisk) was the traditional Christmas dinner for that area! It’s not truly raw, it’s hung up to dry for a few months outside then soaked in lye until it goes slimy.
Sorry, I know I’m wandering off topic but it is nearly Christmas and I won’t do it again!

"Tradition" over here is basically reenacting the dark ages.

You are all wrong. The Norwegian food is Grandiosa and Taco. It’s the Swedish that have the fish “Surströmning” that you die of the smell and they don’t have any oil. LOL.

Staff at the Tesla test drive centre mentioned a shipment to the UK and expectation of more cars in inventory before Christmas? Can anyone confirm?

Yes. Highly likely.

 

[IAmClose]

Just received a new delivery date for my M3P in the Netherlands. It moved from 23rd to 29th dec.

 

[MyNameGeoff]

Yes. Highly likely.

Is this from the Amsterdam shipment? Or something that I have missed? At the moment Tesla website says February

 

[heveahero]

joining the club .. also my delivery date (Amsterdam) has been changed to 29th from 23th .. (M3LR)

Mine is still up for delivery next friday, the 18th. M3LR btw. I’m clueless about which ship it was on though.

 

[Seppo]

I am scheduled for the 22nd @Koopmans - M3LR.
Btw, Lydden is now expected in AMS on 17th @ 00:45

 

[XHabjab]

Nope. Other markets are very important too and a ship has never sailed straight to Norway before. I also don't believe that 2,000 of those onboard Glovis Sun are for Norway. I think that is an exaggeration or very bad guesstimate based anecdotal evidence. People that are hopeful and waiting for their Tesla cars always make up wild theories to make reality fit their train of thought - I've this seen many times.
After Zeebrugge, can't be ruled out though.
Glovis Sun will arrive in Zeebrugge first - I'm Santa if she doesn't. Merry Christmas.

Dear Santa, I'd like a new Tesla. A Model Y would be nice. I'd like mine white please.

 

[Mr Miserable]

OK That's the RCC AMSTERDAM unloaded and she is now departing Southampton.

I'm expecting GLOVIS SUN to deliver to Southampton.

Some quarterly numbers for Model S/X via container ship to Europe

6 ships.

Total 1717
Model S 820
Model X 897

 

[Mr Miserable]

I thought I'd put the 2020 Shipping totals up. It's a little early perhaps but it isn't going to change.
It puts the Q4 figures into perspective!
The RT numbers in italics are estimated. (1 x RT = 1966 Toyota)
I know @jbcarioca for one likes this sort of stuff!

How to use this info.
The RT figure gives you an idea of the capacity of a ship.
If you know the Tesla figures for Model 3 exports to EU in Q1, Q2 and Q3 you can calculate a ratio so you can approximate the Q4 figure.

Thanks for this. The updates help.

Where is she heading?

 

[RRRay]

Despite the suggested delayed arrival in A’dam, the Lydden seems on its way to arrive earlier and in line with the old schedule.
