Not necessarily true as certainly at Nissan sunderland LHD vehicles were always exited via drivers door otherwise a right old pain to shuffle over gear stick/ tunnel and the size of some of our drivers would have made it almost physically impossible.What is interesting about this video is that they are parking the cars the opposite way to the way they are loaded on a ship. On a ship the driver will generally get out on the offside allowing the cars to be parked closer together without the risk of damage from doors opening/closing. The cars are parked either clockwise (RHD) or anti-clockwise (LHD). The distance between cars will have been specified by Tesla and the loading plan will be based on this. Each car will be lashed down to the deck at each wheel. In the unlikely event of a lashing breaking in heavy weather, the car will not be able to move much because it is hemmed in by others. OK the surrounding cars will be damaged but nothing like the damage that could be caused by a completely loose car which could also endanger the ship's hull or ship's systems. Individual vehicles are not accessible at sea because they are so tightly packed together. The only accessible vehicles will be the marked key cars - the cars that must be moved first to unzip the rest.

I'm not suggesting they get out of the passenger door - they get out using the driver's door.Not necessarily true as certainly at Nissan sunderland LHD vehicles were always exited via drivers door otherwise a right old pain to shuffle over gear stick/ tunnel and the size of some of our drivers would have made it almost physically impossible.
Question
Are bus drivers so large because of the job or is it that the only job they can get is a sedentary one.
chicken or egg I guess
Definately Paganella, got my final invoice today, build date 29/6/22, m3 RWD in red, EDD 5 to 19 August. Then the Aussie bound Morning Crystal is collecting the Australian half of the batch. Paganella arrived Shanghai anchorage today.The cars are a mixture of RHD and LHD. This can be seen when blown up on a 4k monitor. RHD would likely be for Australia, Japan, etc It seems to be RHDs being put onto the loaders. I wonder what ship is due soon to load them on. PAGANELLA maybe?
Do you also have background info on colors? It seems they are doubling down on only black or white ones which is a bit annoying given that the other colors are actually more expensive.Tuesday 05 Jul 22
The Shanghai GF should now be producing Model 3 only until July 18 at which point MY production will resume and M3 production will be suspended until Aug 6.
Nope.Do you also have background info on colors? It seems they are doubling down on only black or white ones which is a bit annoying given that the other colors are actually more expensive.
and actually black is an extra and costs the same as MSM or Blue, but enough off topic... back to shipping...Do you also have background info on colors? It seems they are doubling down on only black or white ones which is a bit annoying given that the other colors are actually more expensive.
Not in Europe. Where I live White is 0, Black is 1200, Blue, Grey and Red are 2300. But indeed: back to boats.and actually black is an extra and costs the same as MSM or Blue, but enough off topic... back to shipping...
I used to work on the docks in Ireland and one time on the main deck of one of these ships where they keep heavy machinery they forgot to lash an excavator. Absolute carnage.What is interesting about this video is that they are parking the cars the opposite way to the way they are loaded on a ship.

There are still no signs of any ships heading to Europe/UK yet.
LIBERTY ACE departed the Haitong terminal for Singapore and joins my watch list but otherwise it remains quiet.
As expected MORNING LINDA is on her way in to load at the Haitong terminal. She was originally scheduled to route direct to Drammen, Norway which would have been highly unusual however her itinerary has now been revised in that she will still head to Drammen but now via a stop in Masan, Korea to load more vehicles. Additionally an unloading stop in Antwerp has been added. It all adds up to her being a pretty unlikely candidate for being a Tesla vessel.

Just keep in mind that from July 18th, Shanghai GF will output 2000 MY per day. That could fill a whole ship every two days, catching-up quickly.So it would be logical to think that the first (and maybe second, third....) ships to the UK will be 100% M3
4000???? So 6 days a week so 100000 a month??? Some numbers are wrong ;-)Just keep in mind that from July 18th, Shanghai GF will output 4000 MY per day. That could fill a whole ship daily, catching-up quickly.
Cut that. I’m tired. 2k+. So a ship’s worth every two days (not bad still so point is still somewhat valid). Confused with 14000per week reported figure. Applogies!4000???? So 6 days a week so 100000 a month??? Some numbers are wrong ;-)
July18th you say? just in time for the next lockdown then....Just keep in mind that from July 18th, Shanghai GF will output 2000 MY per day. That could fill a whole ship every two days, catching-up quickly.
Edit:corrected my x2 confusion
even on an abnormal month all the sales for the quarter are crammed into one month which always makes that month look good. The last two months would have looked a little different.Just imagine if June wasn’t an abnormal Tesla month…they ain’t seen noting yet, lol
