07 Apr 23 Summary
GRANDE HOUSTON I can't be sure she is carrying any Teslas (and if she is, it's not likely to be many) however she will end up in Southampton on 28 Apr.
MORNING CALYPSO ETA Barcelona 24 Apr Confirmed to have Teslas onboard, currently heading for the Suez Canal.
GRAND CHAMPION has now departed Shanghai South heading for an EU port, after the traditional refuel off Singapore.
Either Koper (30 Apr), Barcelona (1 May) or Zeebrugge (6 May). My money is on Zeebrugge.
MALAYSIA BRAVE has now pulled in to Shanghai South. She is a smaller ship than the normal 'Panamax' RoRos and is less likely, in my opinion, to be heading to EU or UK. A WuWa video would be welcome! Is she a Tesla ship or is she being used to move those other cars in the compound?
HOEGH COPENHAGEN is heading in to Baltimore, and should depart there on 11 Apr and arrive in Zeebrugge on 21 Apr. If you are in the EU and are waiting for a new MS or MX and you have received your VIN, you can check HERE to see if your car is onboard. (You may have to wait until the ship has departed).
You can follow the ships on this map. It is quite unique in that it is updated with the latest data available including satellite data, unlike others on the internet with 'periodic' updates.

Enjoying these updates - thanks a lot.
Spoke with Tesla Ireland today. As mentioned before they expect a shipment to arrive here in approx 2 weeks - apparently from the UK.
They also expect another shipment in May with what they say is approx double the number of cars as was in the last main shipment in February/ March. This would support Grand Champion heading for Zeebrugge.

I’ve got a a vin for MX LR 7 Seat and my car is on hoegh copenhagen. Arrival in Zeebrugge april 21. Delivery in Belgium, No EDD yet. Thanks for all the info @Mr Miserable
VINs from the Hoegh Copenhagen are already being sent as reported by buyers in the German forum.
MSC IMMACOLATA has performed a number of Tesla charters but she has now changed her name to GOLD KOCHAV. (Catchy,eh?)
It looks very much that she is once again working for Tesla transporting Berlin-built MY to Israel (Arr Ashdod 16 Apr) and Taiwan (Arr Taipei 09 May).
She then heads to Shanghai hopefully to return to Europe with Chinese-built Teslas.

Not yet.
Firstly, you can see that the UK still has quite a lot of cars in inventory from Q1.
Secondly, it's the 8th of the month and only the 8th day of the new quarter.
Read post #1 to this thread and you will see why I'm saying this.
Having said that, I don't think we will be waiting long for the first UK ship of the quarter, in fact, I think I can see what I suspect will be the vessel preparing to approach Shanghai South now...
Update: As I suspected ASIAN TRUST is definitely making her way to Shanghai South at the moment. What we don't know is her destination.....

Thanks for confirming HOEGH COPENHAGEN to me.
There is light at the end of the tunnel!
UK demand currently seems weak based on Q1 sales numbers (no way to check the actual order book AFAIK), and there's already a large inventory in the country. I'm not surprised Tesla is in no rush to dispatch a UK-bound ship.
MALAYSIA GRACE has departed Shanghai South to Japan.
If she was transporting purely Teslas I would have expected her to depart to Yokohama but she is heading to Nagoya.
We shall see if she heads to Yokohama after her stop in Nagoya....
Meanwhile, ASIAN TRUST is manoeuvering to take her place alongside Shanghai South.
I don't have an itinerary for her at the moment....

ASIAN TRUST has only just arrived alongside but already the next ship inbound to Shanghai South is on the horizon - MORNING MENAD will be next!
The good news is that I'm pretty sure this ship is not on Tesla business and should depart to Tacoma USA.

Actually another ship has sneaked in front - MORNING CAMILLA is on her way into Shanghai South!
I'm a little surprised with this as I believe she is heading to South Africa which would possibly indicate she is not on Tesla business.
Alternatively, if she is bound for the UK she could just make it to Southampton in time for Queen Camilla's Coronation but that would be too corny.

All you have to do is choose a major square and then one of the 25 minor squares within it, that you think the ship will be located in. (I realise they aren't actually square!)
Only 1 entry per person
In the event of a tie, the person who chose the closest small square first will be declared the winner.
The competition will close for entries at Midday UTC on 12 Apr 23
There is no prize - it's just bit of fun!
Results will be announced on the shipping thread on 16 Apr 23.
You don't need to sign in to Google or enter an email address to enter!
