    Dealer says my Plug-In's vessel name is "TMC Japan". This does not match any ship names at the beginning of this thread. Any help? Thanks.

    That just means it has not been assigned yet or if it has it's not in the system yet for your dealer to see. Give it time, it will change.

    Yes it did and this so page 10 post 97 of this thread news.;)

    I was checking out the crab fishing sites after seeing the Conti Highway up by Dutch Harbor. CorneliaMarie | Crab Fishing Vessel on Deadliest Catch has a new write up on how to use Marine Traffic to follow your favorite crab boat. So we are not the only ones!

    Marinetraffic is having server problems at the moment. Looks like they are using back up data from Sunday. Not realtime for the maps ect.

    Pyxis is loading now and now we know where it's going. Looks like Benicia/Long Beach. Century Highway 2 follows over the weekend to Portland or East Coast. Nothing confirmed yet.

    Nope, I had no idea there was a Pyxis shipping Toyota cars as well. I've only been following the Pyxis Leader since me and my fathers car is on it. :) Now I know lol
