This morning nothing major, but just off shore headed into the Chesapeake Bay around 6:45am

The reported ETA was 7pm, but it looks like around 1am right now. You don't go steaming into the bay at 18 knots.
Dude! You must be stoked since it seems you’ve been tracking it like a hawk!
How do you know so much about the history of the schedule?

this your first one or have had others?

Carpathian Grey 90 "S" P300 with extended tan vintage leather is me.

As of 3pm it's basically just off Norfolk / Newport News. Latest docking estimate is about noon tomorrow at this point as opposed to the original estimated time of 7pm tonight.

You gettting the tan Windsor leather option? I didn’t think many people got that other than me.

110 Pangea green, p300 with off-road goodies added.

Looks like it’s anchored at sparrow point, or whatever it’s called. I’m guessing that’s where it’s gripping the vehicles off.

Exactly. Sparrow Point is one of the vehicle offload points. It usually takes 4 or 5 hours to unload once it gets started.

As I expected, the Destination changed from Baltimore to Sparrow Point (USPPO port code) just before it got to Baltimore.

The forecast for it still shows something in Baltimore if I’m reading it correctly. Does that mean one more stop there and then to Brunswick?

See my note about Generic vs specific ports. For overseas transit, they use the major port code (i. e. USBAL = Baltimore) to the vehicle offload points. They don't always have separate port codes, like Charleston. Brunswick works the same as Charleston, it's not big enough to have multiple port codes.

Comments about my build: Carpathian Grey, vintage tan leather, dark wood, I didn't check the Advanced Towing option, but mostly everything else.

The only option that changed is analog dash as opposed to full digital. The upgraded LED lights were not available to order when I placed mine February 18th. This is going to be close to four months delivery time. I was initially expecting 8 or 9 months.
