Hoping someone else can answer this since I am keen to find out as well. My ship will dock in Sydney today and then onto Brisbane by Sunday. There are two public holidays to take into consideration before it gets to my dealer.

When my M3 arrived at Port Kembla on 30th March, the car was ready for pick up on the 12th April in Sydney, so gives you some idea. But for Brisbane delivery, it depends on the travel time from Dock to Dealer due to distance. I would guess between 7 to 10 days (working days)

Mine was around 14 days, from memory.

Congrats on the first stage of the cars journey. Watching can be both torturous and exciting.

Haven’t heard a thing from the dealer as to when I can pick my car up. At least you could see movement whilst watching the ship on the marinetraffic website.

Did you call your dealer and find out when you are able to pick up the car? I tried to call them this week, and they said they expect the car will be arrived at the dealership next Tuesday and do the detail put the parts on, and hopefully I will be able to pick up the car by next Friday.
The status on the 2W logistics said the car is already delivered from port on 21st of April, should the car just delivered straight to my local dealer? It looks like took them forever to deliver it from Mel to Adelaide.

Once my car arrived in the Port of Brisbane docks it took 8 days for Motorline to call me that it was ready to be picked up. Sadly my garage wasn't ready in time so I had to let it in the dealership for another week before picking it up

I do not think the ship leave the port today.
