Is there just the one boat per week? Which ports in the UK does it dock at?

Apparently so, sails Sunday's only and docks in sheerness in the south and grimsby(?) up north. May be wrong about up north

Boat slightly late due to weather, just sailing into port now, http://www.marinetraffic.com/en/ais/det ... OF%20PARIS

Should be out early tomorrow if it's out early enough the tracker should reflect this in a text, if not might be Tuesday to be totally sure.

Portugal > Sheerness > Grimsby > Tyne (my stop)

Same as myself and Lewis then, should all be coming over together. Where abouts are you? I'm in Surrey so mine will be docking in sheerness. God knows when, maybe Thursday? Depends how fast the boat wants to go [emoji23]

I'm on the Isle of Wight, so mine will be docking in Sheerness too, shame it's not Southampton! My dealer has told me that the car transporter comes to the Island each week on a Tuesday, so I'm kind of hoping it will be here Tuesday the 9th, and hopefully PDI'd and ready for me to collect on Wednesday the 10th, if not I guess the 17th...

question is how much do you save by buying a generic box that is adapted to your car than a map that is designed for your model car?

Hopefully repairable! Is it in the sidewall or main tread?
