Okay, I'll play out a new theory:I note the mighty Dong is on the move. I suspect she will arrive too late to be a serious contender.
Thank Mr Miserable for your daily update, I am worried a bit when I heard about last month attack on Hyperion Ray. Do u have any details on that? I heard the owner is Israel business man and it was attacked by Iran. Given the tension in the Middle East, is there any reasons for us to worry again?LAKE FUXIAN continues to make good progress across the Atlantic.
She is maintaining over 17kts as she heads towards the Brest Peninsula
She will arrive off Zeebrugge on Saturday afternoon

GLOVIS CHORUS is averaging about 16 kts on her great circle course towards the English Channel
She is still in an area that is likely to see some thunderstorms today but otherwise I have no weather concerns.
Her ETA in Zeebrugge is 27 May.

GLOVIS CENTURY is presently about 260NM NW of Acapulco making just over 15kts.
She will arrive off the Pacific entrance to the Panama Canal on Sunday night and I expect her to transit the canal early on Monday morning.
I currently estimate that her arrival in Zeebrugge will be around 5 Jun
The GLOVIS CENTURY competition is open - ENTER HERE
Only one person entered yesterday! What?? I’ve rechecked the links, they are working, in case that was the issue.
The winner will be the person who chooses the closest minor square first - so enter now if you haven’t already! It’s easy and it's free!

The next ship to arrive at Pier 80 will be GLOVIS COUNTESS.
She should arrive off San Francisco around midnight local tonight and be alongside Pier 80 a couple of hours later
I strongly suspect this will be the final ship of the quarter to leave for Europe from Pier 80.
It’s hard to give an estimate for her arrival in Zeebrugge since loading at Pier 80 is taking so much longer at present but I will take a stab at around 14 Jun.
GLOVIS SUN is currently in the Suez Canal enroute from Shanghai to Zeebrugge and probably Southampton
She has already reached the Great Bitter Lake and so now has just 50 NM or so to go, at around 8-9kts until she reaches the Mediterranean.
We should find out when she exits the canal this afternoon exactly where she is headed to and get a precise ETA.
It’s interesting to note that one of the benefits from the EVER GIVEN saga is that terrestrial AIS coverage of the canal has greatly improved!
My ETA for her in Zeebrugge is 28 May and possibly Southampton around 31 May.
The Zeebrugge Port Schedule is still showing her arriving there on 4 Jun.
LAKE GENEVA is enroute to Suez with an ETA of 27 May.
I suspect she is nursing a technical issue.
Last Friday she stopped unexpectedly for about 3 hrs and last night at 1am local time she stopped again but this time for over 9 hours.
Over the last 24 hours she has only covered 215 NM
She is currently back up to nearly 17kts and can easily make Suez on time.
When this ship departed Shanghai I commented that her ETA was very unambitious and so perhaps these stops were anticipated and allowances have been made accordingly.
I estimate that she should arrive at Zeebrugge around 6 Jun but I did not allow for any unscheduled stops in that calculation.
If she takes much longer she will risk being overtaken by HYPERION RAY!

HYPERION RAY is the ship that I believe will be coming to Southampton, and possibly Zeebrugge as well.
She has passed through the busy Singapore Straits and is now heading north through the Straits of Malacca at nearly 18kts
I expect her to arrive in Southampton around 8 Jun.

I’m sure the skipper will give the area a wide berth if there is anything to worry aboutThank Mr Miserable for your daily update, I am worried a bit when I heard about last month attack on Hyperion Ray.

I have found the MIGHTY DONG in Japan next week, so we can scrub her off as a possibility.Okay, I'll play out a new theory:
The MIGHTY DONG was in a harbour for a general overhaul for 2 weeks and it took a little longer than expected.
If she is at the pier tonight for 24 hours, she could sail on Friday 21.05.
We have already had crossings of 28 or 29 days from SHG, so she'll arrive in Zeebrugge on 18./19. June.
3 days late, but still in time for Q2 delivery.
Greets and just my 2 ...
... its all over now ... my glass bowl is broken ...I have found the MIGHTY DONG in Japan next week, so we can scrub her off as a possibility.
Hmm how is that possible?Mine is 959 too
Keep it about boats otherwise some jobs worth will delete your postHmm how is that possible?
what’s your model and configuration
Hi This could be correct. My adviser say my 953XXX VIN M3LR will be at my closest Service Center in Sweden (Norrkoping) by 3/6. Guess that is enough time for shipping from Zeebrugge to SC. The Chorus arriving 27/5 would cut that too close in time perhaps.Found this on another forum: link to unverified content removed
Looks like cars with VIN between 950XX and 958XXX are on Lake Fuxian and those after on Glovis Chorus. My VIN is 954XXX, fingers crossed it is on Fuxian instead of Chorus.
Should be on Glovis Chorus according to some german forums, but Mr Miserable probably knows bestFrom Norway. Also got my M3P vin. Its 960. Any idea which ship it is on?
It was probably on cosmos if you’re getting it delivered early June In ScandinaviaHi This could be correct.

I suggest Australia. MORNING CLARA should be delivering to Sydney around 31 May.I know that HYPERION RAY will be bringing the first Shanghai-built RHD 2021 M3 Performance vehicles to GB and Ireland in June, but do we know if there are any ships supplying other Shanghai export markets (LHD or RHD) that will arrive at their destinations before this (assuming of course none have yet!)?
I'm trying to figure out which direction we should be looking for the first Shanghai-built 2021 M3 Performance reviews!
