Any one know which car carrier currently delivers the Octavias to SHEERNESS. I know a year or so ago it was the Gran Canaria but don't see that ship on that route now?

As far as I can tell, they don't use one specific boat on a specific route.

 

Maybe, keep an eye on Emden port and see which boats leaving from there. Guessing you're watching MarineTraffic !

And watch the expected boats into Sheerness too !

(Not many people do this ! )

HeHeHe! Not many people are as sad as me.

 

When awaiting my first Skoda (May 2016) it was always the Gran Canaria and I did track it. Will keep an eye out this time but not yet as I am week 37 build so a way to go yet.

Ah, no. That's not sad at all. I do it still and I'm not even waiting for a car .  Enjoy !!

Watched kettle never boils...

 

Well it does eventually...

 

I think they use the 'Highway' car carriers. Mine was on Weser Highway.

Tracking it as of now.  

It looks a better ship from my limited knowledge. The last carrier I tracked, the Gran Canaria, appeared to be a right rust bucket.

But hasn't been sideways on a sand bank like Hoegh Osaka...

I notice that that ship was carrying "high end cars" - that's my Skoda safe then.
