Once on he ship to Europe, how long does is take?

Several weeks ago we were told the delivery date had been changed from mid August to between the 23 and 29 of July.

Two weeks ago we were then told by our dealer, here in Switzerland, that the car was on the ship and on it's way.

Today we are told that the car is on the ship and will be here mid August.

Somehow I'm a bit confused.

Does anyone know how long it take for the ships to cross the pond?

Thanks

I guess I was so upset that I made some typos in the title.

I think it's about a week and half to two weeks. That ties in with my car which has just arrived at Bremehaven (and now has to go all the way back to Southampton )

Thanks guys, and thanks Renaud for the link.
I can't seem to even be able to get the name of the ship from the dealer. I think it's just the normal customer service that I have learned to expect in Switzerland. I guess I must just be patient.
