Never mind, there it is off the southern tip of the west coast of Mexico...
I think they must be stopping at every port, they seem to be moving slowly!

As of 12/19 at 0002, ETA in San Diego is now 12/20 0100 per Port of San Diego. The ship still isn't appearing on any of the ship tracking AIS websites, but their range from San Diego doesn't appear to extend much beyond Ensenada. I don't expect the GC to show up until she's just a few hours from port.
There are 4 more car carriers due into SD within about 48 hours of our ship. I'm afraid our cars will get swallowed up in the crowd and take forever to be moved. And for the GT3s, there are only a small number of specially equipped trucks that can haul the GT3s because of their clearance issues (per my salesman) so the non-GT3s (like my GTS) may get to the dealers sooner.

And soon... a '15 991GTS

Newest update - it's at the upper end of the baja peninsula. Looks like San Diego tomorrow as promised.

Glovis Companion docked this morning around 2:00 am in San Diego. She has off-loaded and should be leaving port shortly.
I've no idea how many cars were off-loaded from her. And now the most painful part of the waiting begins!

Is San Diego the only west coast port of entry for Porsche? Nothing further north?

Glovis Companion cars are now arriving at the dealers. My friend's Cayenne Turbo arrived today at our dealer in Riverside, CA. Unfortunately my 991GTS hasn't made it yet.
So the good news is that at least some of the cars have made it off the dock. The rest of us can't be far behind.
