...Looks like the TOSCA has been delayed at least a day.
The wayward ways of the captain made him miss his ETA this am ;-)
The port of Halifax lists the dock time of tomorrow at 8am and the W&W site now lists an ETA of 09/07/2015.
Here's hoping for a speedy trip from Halifax to Toronto... especially after reading Lance's review today.

EDIT: In looking at the data, it actually looks like the ship is current stopped -- do they get to anchor the ship to sleep
Either that or the ship is being attacked by pirates.... the pirates off the coast of Halifax are known to be ruthless....

Yeah, sucks about the delay. VesselTracker.com is showing an ETA of 6am tomorrow. Tosca seems soooo close to shore (see pic attached), yet so very far away..... I was looking at the CN shipping times, it looks like a 5-7 day trip from Halifax to Toronto....

Either that or the ship is being attacked by pirates.... the pirates off the coast of Halifax are known to be ruthless....It seems that they need to wait for a designated arrival time given to them by the port (perhaps when the AutoPort is available to receive cars).
So tomorrow it is.

Odd, the AutoPort is opposite to where the Tosca docked, on the other side of the bay.
All my previous cars were offloaded on the Eastern Autoport.
Interesting.

Talk about being ****, ... attached is a pic of the TOSCA arriving close to Pier 21 in Halifax this morning (8am).
There's a live webcam showing it rotate into port....

If I'm right, you have to come over and show me your car!

Google maps show's a lot of rail lines where the TOSCA docked, perhaps they roll the car's off directly onto the railcars....
We'll definitely have to setup an F-type meet/drive on TO.
If it's a roro/container vessel, it's probably offloading the containers first.
