2022 Shipping Movements

I could go and have a chat with the marine underwriters and see if they know anything. They may have been approached to provide insurance for Tesla ships already.

I can't imagine Lloyds being too happy with their client's information being shared openly in forums.

Got the calculator out and a ship full of Tesla’s is worth around £250m plus the value of the ship

Do you have an EDD on the app for your car? And what is it showing for your brother?

Both with no EDDs but when ordering it was saying july

This was uploaded to YouTube an hour ago. Not particularly informative but I know how much we all relish the opportunity to do a spot of speculatin'

Pretty sad little collection of MYs at 1:57. But this could mean that a big batch has just gone out.. Who knows...

 

[Mr Miserable]

GLOVIS SPLENDOR continues to make good progress enroute to Suez and Koper (01 Jun). It's 29C and 80% humidity and so the vehicle deck temperatures will be being closely monitored and the decks ventilated as required. Although in this case there is no risk of a build up of petrol fumes, ventilating as a matter of routine prevents a build up of any gases and helps to control temperature and humidity problems. The ventilation system is high maintenance - it has to be frequently inspected to ensure that it doesn't cause problems by blowing sea water, rust or excess grease (from the dampers) on to the precious cargo.

THEBEN is shortly about to arrive in Singapore for her refuel which will take at least 8 hrs. She is due to arrive in Zeebruge on 14 Jun.
The THEBEN competition remains open! It's free and worth a look. If you want to win a brand new Model Y though I would look elsewhere.

RCC EUROPE has now entered the South China Sea and is making 16kts in the calm seas enroute to Singapore for a fuel stop. Therafter she should hopefully head to Southampton where she could arrive around 17 Jun

HORIZON LEADER remains prowling offshore waiting to be summoned to Shanghai South. I'm hoping she will be EU/UK bound. This ship was chartered by Tesla last November for a Shanghai to Southampton and Zeebrugge run, although past performance is not indicative ...blah blah, it gives me a little reassurance that history may repeat itself.

MORNING PEACE is alongside the main RoRo terminal at Haitong and is due to depart tomorrow afternoon to Southampton and Zeebrugge. I'm not convinced this is a Tesla vessel.

For Tesla, its internally referred to Revenue hiding and Tax avoidance strategy by creating chaotic and confusing records which tally up to final credits in Tesla books (not the customer's). For many not all, there are multiple invoices and credit notes (up to 4 or 5) both prior to order and post-delivery of vehicle

You must be fun at conspiracy theory parties.

You should have seen me predicting all the issues with the 2022 new equipment incorporated in the Model 3's and Model Y's and projecting deliveries coming to a standstill and all of it came true 2 months later.

Had a good look at this on release. The ones you can make out drivers are LHD.

Those winter nights must just fly by.

 

[Mr Miserable]

Yeah I was wondering if anyone worked in the Marine area and might have access to tracking software / news bulletins / cargo info

Tracking - I'm doing it daily, if you want more frequent updates there are subscriptions.
news bulletins - seem to be mostly adverts nowadays
cargo info - there are Teslas onboard - some red ones, some grey ones, a lot of white ones, the odd black one and absolutely no blue ones.

 

[Jason71]

I work in Lloyd’s. Not sure what you need me to do though?

Valium all round please.

What I want is a VIN and a collection date Until then, “The Shipping News” it is !

@Mr Miserable we have seen some EDD changes today with many being brought forward to start dates 14th-16th June through to 30th. Are we expecting RCC Europe to come in a little earlier to Southampton or one of the other ships to drop by Southampton before then?

I would of thought that if it was the 14th, that would be glovis or TheBen, which I would suspect there are no UK cars on board.

We don't know where GLOVIS SPLENDOR is heading to after Koper (I'm expecting her to unload fully there) but I think it's a stretch to hope for Southampton. RCC EUROPE could do a sprint from Singapore and arrive a couple of days early.

It just amazes me that a ship can dail with no firm itinerary or cargo.

As I understand it they don’t sail without a firm itinerary or cargo. They just don’t necessarily make either of those public.

If the above is true, the below is understandable.

Particularly since there’s a clearly marked ‘pirate zone’ not too far from the entry to the Suez.

It will have a firm itinerary - it's just that it's not published because the ship is chartered.

 

[S3XY T3SLA]

Theben entering the bunkering area at Singapore - shipping is becoming fascinating

 

[Sunderland boy]

Has anyone got the VIN issued for the cars with EDD of' July'? If not, any ideas as to when these will be provided? I assume it will be when they are on the boat...

Also has anyone ordered a red MY?

When the boat leaves
