Anyone else have a car on the Madame Butterfly?

Is it just me? Or is anyone else tracking their BMW as it heads to the US on the Madame Butterfly?

I tracked the ship as it went from Bremerhaven to Zeebrugge to Southampton. It left the English Channel last night on its way to New York.

I've been using this site, which appears to incorporate all the AIS tracking data that has been mentioned in the tracking thread, but which also doesn't require registration.

I was tracking it through the English Channel last night. This morning it had disappeared from the tracking. I assume it's chugging its way across the Atlantic now. I hope this doesn't mean it sunk. Either way I'll know this time next week when it (hopefully) reappears around New York.
