United-States Jingu Maru

My car is shown on the Wilmhelmsen site as being aboard the Jingu Maru. The site indicates that the ship sailed today. The part that troubles me is that it also shows that the ship is not due in New York until July 5th. Is this possible. It lists no other stops between Southampton and New York.
Can anyone offer insight in to this matter. Any and all responses are appreciated.

They do the dates backward from what we're used to seeing, so the 5 is the month and the 7 is the day.

Thanks! That's what I get for not looking carefully.
I appreciate the info. I guess that I am just getting excited about the new baby.

Yeah, the Europeans put the day first, THEN the month instead of vice-versa .

United-States Tomorrow

Exciting times. It looks as if the ship will dock tomorrow .
Does anyone have experience with how long it take to an east coast dealer once the MINI is offloaded?

Could be anywhere from a couple of days to a couple of weeks depending on how long it sits at the VPC and when the next carrier departs.

My Cooper took 2 or 2.5 weeks to get here (Richmond) once it was offloaded. But then again my MCS was offloaded Sunday 5/4 from the TOSCA and I'm expecting it anyday now....MINIUSA say 5/6 which is today, however I doubt it will come until the end of the week or beginning of next week.

I have an estimated delivery date of May 15th, 2003. I'm hoping Rocco arrives on time, or early!!
