My Cayenne S is on Bess. Hope to get it in MN right around Thanksgiving if I'm lucky. Lots of snow here so I'm not driving my 997 S Cab.

Ask your dealer for the screen shot of the updated status. That way you can see what vessel you are on and your tires.

Looks like she's slightly behind schedule. Was supposed to arrive on the 19th at Halifax and now it's the 20th. How long to get to Davisville after that? 2-3 days?

True, I was watching one last week sit in the North Atlantic just outside of the port. It sat for almost 2 days.

I received confirmation today that my vehicle is on Bess as well; can't wait!

V300: 11/4
V331: 11/7
V332: 11/11
ETA at dealer around 12/5/2014, provided there are no further hiccups. Not holding my breath...

Oh and BTW - Michelin Tires

Cheers/B
