Me too! Looks like it just departed port in Freo.

How did you guys find out which ship it's on?

It's a educated guess.

The shipping schedules/positions are easy enough to find, for example we know TURANDOT car carrier left Shanghai 15 days ago, went to Tokyo and is docking in Brisbane today, then Port Kembla, then Melbourne. It's a known Tesla transporter.

Combined with on my invoice I have my car's build date of 27/5, combined with my EDD of 22june to 30june.

All those combine to give a probably correct guess that it's on TURANDOT.

It’s an educated guess until Tesla give up the ghost and confirm it for you.

Otherwise Viper is spot on. Educated guesswork. I initially had Morning Crystal as the probable ship this run, Paganella a slightly possibility, then Turandot as a secondary carrier, or not at all much later on.

You study the patterns and work backwards. Sometimes you get it right, sometimes you don’t.

Or if you have the luxury of having a VIN assigned and your Tesla is on a Mol Ace ship, you can just check directly

any insight on why the Turandot is not going into Brisbane port until Sunday? Its schedule changed a few hours before it was supposed to and now circling.

Port congestion by the look of it, Orion Highway and Salvia Ace are ahead of it in the queue.

 

[Bodjoterry]

Ah! Kick them out for the Queenslander Tesla waiting members I say.

Once you get your VIN, check it here.

That may have worked!...... it appears to be moving again for an ETA of 14:09 today. Time to stop tracking I think

Just had another look, the port schedule published yesterday shows ships arriving between 12th and 15th to expect 3-6 day delays. It shows Turandot docking Sunday arvo! hopefully comes in sooner

Interestingly my edd updated from 22nd-30june to now show 16th-30th June. Seems unlikely a delay should make the end be sooner

Shame the turandot is delayed but it won't be too long.

 

[viperau]

Well they must be confident the ship will be dropping off.

Does your VIN register on RoRo?

I’m just about to hop on a plane back to Brisbane from San Francisco and am now panicking because I haven’t finalised my finance so I picked the latest date I could. It’s great that we are getting them earlier in one way but I was not prepared for this early!

Wow. The latest date was the 20th?? That’s awesome. Safe travels!

I had from 20th to 24th. I picked the Saturday.

Maybe our cars were on a earlier ship

Tried, doesn't come up

 

[Sturty]

If yours is on Turandot as I suspect (more than suspect) then the MolAce RoRo will not do you any favours - Turandot is a Wilhemsen.

Thanks. It's not on that ship
