I didn’t bother contacting the dealer today to see if he had word of it, the ship was still berthed at Tilbury when I last checked so it might not even be off yet. I’d probably just panic if he said no anyway lol.
On a side note, I read some interesting articles yesterday about the unloading process. They have a team of people called Stevedores, and they get bussed onto the ship to drive the cars off, then get picked up and took back to the ship to repeat the process. Newark harbour in the US is one of the biggest with 140 Stevedores for every ship, but they still only manage 450 cars an hour max. Considering they can be offloading thousands at a time, it can be a long process.
I also found out that these huge ships are manned by a crew of just 22. The crew take nothing to do with loading and unloading though, that is all on the port authorities.
My mind is absolutely fried with vehicle carrier info lol.
