ETA does show May 15 based on current speed and distance, but it seems like they have been scheduled to arrive at the port on May 17th due to a lack of available space for it to dock. This is the schedule on the official port website.

Hopefully that's more accurate. The screenshot I attached was the ship's scheduled docking in Tacoma. Vessel Schedules and Calendar
Looking at reyhan12's chart, onlinesurfer ordered on May 3. Not sure if that would change anything given Morning Caroline set sail on May 1 and Tesla claims to be carrying quite a bit of excess inventory this shipmentAlmost a month to get from Vancouver to Toronto just doesn’t make sense to me. At this point I’d be down to pick it up from Vancouver
Could there be other vehicles aside from Teslas in the carrier? Or perhaps the MYs bound for Toronto and Montreal land travel is from Tacoma? Assumptions assumption
I think I just made a post above in error that I can't undo. Anyway, I noticed Tesla fixed their site error that showed the MY RWD at 2298 kgs. It now shows 1909 kgs as in the rest of the world. It still says 250 KW charging instead of 170 KW. We'll find out soon enough.

Morning Crystal is anchored at the port waiting for Glovis Crystal to leave terminal EB1. It's strange though, Glovis Crystal departs the terminal at 5PM today. According to the schedule, there's no ship that will dock after that up until May 16. I wonder why Morning Caroline couldn't dock right after Glovis Crystal leaves.
It’d be nice if it actually had 250kw charging speed capability but it’s unlikely due to it being an lfp battery.
Glovis Crystal is still at the terminal even though her departure was supposed to be last night. I guess that explains why Morning Caroline is scheduled for tomorrow.

For anyone in BC, my friend was just told the BC gov ran out of funds for the Provincial rebate. He had his delivery scheduled for this Saturday so has now delayed it as BC has told Tesla funds will be replenished in about a week (exact date uncertain). Tesla said he could take delivery on Saturday and forgo the rebate (yeah right) or delay. But he had to initiate the conversation with Tesla as his only clue was the BC rebate wasn't showing on the MVPA. They would have just let him show up on Saturday.
Interesting, I can't find any info about this and the BC rebate website is still open for applications. Surely if the rebate was approved, it will be honored.
Yeah hope so because as per this website $21.46 million is in reserved funds and it has asterisk beside it. At the bottom of website it says “*Funds reserved for the reimbursement of applications submitted. These funds are no longer available.”

Looks like Morning Caroline is approaching EB1 terminal. ETA says should be within the hour
Fingers crossed for delivery movements to move earlier

Yes, I've seen talk about it on other forums as well. Huge bummer. Hopefully the BC government acts quickly to top this up.
Unreal that the govt couldn't predict the take up and when they'd run out of money? Sounds like they're just about as effective as the ON government, although bonus points for not hating EVs.
