[QUOTE=dardeca;24598292]My M5 Comp sat at Bremerhaven for 10 days (arrived 2/6, on a boat on 2/16). Once on a boat, BMW Genius said my estimated arrival date to port of Baltimore was 2/28 (12 days on a boat)...in reality, it didn't arrive in Baltimore until 3/7.[QUOTE]
My experience had my car waiting for 14 days at Bremerhaven before being in transit on a ship. The My BMW site told me it left Bremerhaven on 3/27 and is expected in Baltimore on 4/6. When I go to the marine traffic site it gives me the same arrival date for the ship it's on. BUT, it's 6,310 km from Bremerhaven to Baltimore, and the average speed of those ships is about 16 knots. That tells me it will take around 16 days to make the journey. So..... I'm expecting the arrival date to change at some point, but will be pleasantly surprised if I'm wrong. For the currently predicted transit time to be correct the ship would have to average 26 knots, and I don't think that's possible.
