SFL COMPOSER left Southampton this morning and is now anchored off Zeebrugge waiting to enter. According to the Zeebruuge port schedule she needs to wait until 11am tomorrow.
GRAND PIONEER is now in the North Atlantic and has already overtaken MSC IMMACOLATA. She is now scheduled to arrive in Southampton on 28 Feb, which I believe was my original estimate for her. She should depart to Zeebrugge at 23:00 on 01 Mar ETA 02 Mar.
MSC IMMACOLATA Her AIS still remains to be updated with her destination and ETA but we now know she is inbound to Southampton with a scheduled arrival of 05:30 on 02 Mar. I am assuming a departure to Zeebrugge on 03 Mar. She is presently loitering in the Gulf of Cadiz. She has plenty of time to get to Southampton and so I suspect she has been using the spare time to conduct some training. Fire training, man overboard drills, that sort of thing.
RCC AMSTERDAM has arrived off Suez and I expect her to transit the canal early tomorrow morning.
I expect her to arrive in Southampton around 06 Mar.
The RCC AMSTERDAM competition is closed and if you are one of those people who thought they could sneak an entry in after midday, bad luck because they have already been deleted. I had a quick look at the entries and some folk have entered more than once - naughty! The VBA routine I run that measures the distance off for each entry will keep your first entry and delete the rest. Harsh but fair. We now have to wait until midday 04 Mar to find out who won.
GLOVIS CHORUS is now in the Gulf of Aden. She should arrive in Southampton around 09 Mar. I haven't seen much evidence to say that she is carrying Teslas though.
MORNING CARINA is crossing the Arabian Sea. Southampton 12 Mar Zeebrugge 14 Mar
GRAND DOLPHIN is just passing the southern tip of India. There is good evidence to suggest she is heading to Koper and should arrive there around 10 Mar
GLOVIS SYMPHONY heading for Suez. She isn't hanging around and is already powering through the Straits of Malacca. She could make Southampton on 17 Mar.
RCC CLASSIC is heading for Singapore initially. Koper next? I estimate 14 Mar for Koper.
