RE: My $h!#y luck!
Unfortunately, not yet...
If I don't make the boat this Thursday, it will be the Third week since it has been "At the Pier" waiting in line.... (giveing them the Benefit of the doubt, really only the Second if it takes them a few days for Prep...)
I'm Checking the ENCS Site daily to see any updates on the "Overseas Shipping" area. I've been told it's 21 days sailing time, then off load time and possibly a few more days at Bremerhaven... Once I get close to the all clear, I'll be taking the train up to pick her up there. Then a Nice leisurely back road Break in drive home. After that, she better be ready to driven HARD...
On a side note, I was just reading about the differences in the "Labeled" Octane ratings in Europe and how they differ from the states. MON and RON Apparently. Basically, the Europe Ratings are about 4-5 points Higher than the US (so 95 Octane in Europe is about equivalent to 91 US)
Thought that was interesting and should share with the group...

Ah Bremerhaven! Been there done that. Of course the liter steins of Beck's dark made the memories a bit hazy. LOL! Went there back in the late 70's compliments of the US Navy.
