Default Cargo Ship Name????

Hey everyone. I justed wanted to let everyone know that while cleaning out my car this last time, I found some paperwork in the center console under the drop-in storage part that had the name of the cargo ship that my baby came over on.

The Harmony Ace!!!!!!! I thought that was pretty cool, to know that little piece of my car's history. Has anyone else found that out? Would love to hear some of the other names. Maybe some of our cars were on the same ship!

Later,

Mark

I thought once a car company closed a container it couldnt be opened until it got to where ever the container was going, let alone put papers inside of a car that is packed in the container

That's not a container vessel it's a RORO (Roll On-Roll Off). Kind of like a giant Ferry for the ocean that can only dock at certain RORO ports (Probably Baltimore).

It has to be closed up, if not, salt in the air WILL eat your car alive.
