I have been tracking the Salome and it has left the port of Southhampton and it's next stop is Baltimore to collect our baby's.
Haha glad I am not the only crazy one tracking the ships progress before it even docks back in Baltimore!

I mentioned somewhere else that mines booked in to be dropped off in Melbourne on th Salome, but I'm from Sydney so , its fair to say the Port Kembla would be a better option right? Any ideas on how i can have this ammended?

Why is that? Have you moved states or did you get a cancelled order?

Pretty sure that it can't be amended going by the experiences of others.

My car went to Melbourne before being shipped back to Port Kembla, but they all did back then.

Very strange. Same dealer as me btw (make sure you give clear instructions if you don't want your bumpers drilled).

Not sure I'd like my car being trucked from Melbourne (assuming that's how they get it back).

Perhaps you could check with Ford via FB.

Salome is scheduled to stop at Port Kembla, right?

Salome is finally out of range crossing the Atlantic, next time we see her pop up on the map I hope she is nearing Baltimore port!

Cotus has updated to saying "in transit". Build was 17/1/17. Got my fingers and toes crossed that it makes it to the docks in time for boat leaving 27/1/17 otherwise hoping for the Figaro on 04/02/17.

I am crossing my fingers for you and hope your baby becomes a ship mate. Mine did sit in "transet" for weeks before having it's spot booked for shipping down under.

Hate to be the bearer of bad news but all the Stangs going on the Salome have already been booked and I cannot see you making it on the Figaro either, people with cars built second half of December will be on that one. If yours was built on the 17th of January I would wait a week and then message Ford Service on this forum and find out if it has been delivered to the port, once there add 4-6 weeks on and that will give you your sailing date.

Not going to happen, it's a 4-6 week wait on the docks before it gets issued a ship
