How to work out ship carrier?

How have people worked it out? I'm now at 8200 released to carrier so when should I be looking at a likely ship? It's TRL berry so it's Southampton I presume.

Too soon yet though, need to await the status left port of EU or something, then deduct which ship is on its way to Southampton.

Yours will go Cuxhaven to Southampton.

If you're 8200, pester the genius at least twice a day until he tells you that you are "at sea"

Then look on one of the ship tracking websites and look for Port Arrivals coming from Cux. Simples.

Be aware, you might be told you are "at sea" and the new motor will ah e only been loaded and ship still in dock so a bit of working out is required.

Keep us posted on this thread and I'll check shipping schedules for you

Btw, these tips worked like a charm. I even saw the ship leave dock via webcam. Very geeky but a good feeling!

Now you need to go down to the dock to watch it unload
