My SA says I officially reached CP8.0 yesterday, yay. (CGTS) TYD is not so clear. It shows all milestones completed. Same delivery date of 6/3 although the port dates have pulled in by a week.

Now waiting for some pictures.

I tripped over this site - https://shipfix.com/ship/san-martin_IMO-9382097

It appears to offer semi regular updates when the ship is crossing the atlantic.

If you're looking for another ship - use google and search for "ship-name draft" and in the google search results, look for the one from shipfix. I briefly looked for how to find a ship through their menus, but this was quicker for me... HTH

Yep… I need to compare with TYD. It appears they do kind of keep it up to date. I assume they have a whole logistics group that are tracking all the ships.

Looking at TYD it does appear to be updating with the correct position pretty regularly. If you zoom in on the TYD map you can see small zigs and zags that could only be explained as navigating around traffic. With that knowledge in mind I’ll probably just watch YTD and not worry about satellite position.

I'm 4/29 too although TYD erased all my dates 3 weeks ago, I did get an email from Porsche last week saying it was still 4/29, I'll find out soon enough if that's going to happen!

Mind guiding me how the dates changed (or not) with everything going on? My dealer is not very clear but has given me a confirmed V200 status.
My freeze day was near Christmas time and only delivered past Saturday. Three and a half month looks right so you mostly will get it before or around August. Don’t think it will be faster with everything going on nowadays unfortunately

I am! Grand Legacy has my 911 T4 GTS and I’m counting down the days to touchdown at the dealer. Have a 5/13 date in SoCal right now. 🤞🏾

Based upon the departure and arrival times that I've previously seen, I think the Grand Legacy gets to So Cal earlier than that.

My Spyder has been sitting in Emden since March 21st, while I've seen other cars arrive in port almost ten days later that are already on boats headed this way. SMH

I’ve surmised that all of us with 4/29 locks had the same experience and V170 status. Will be interesting to see if we all actually lock on 4/29 like the email says. Just want to see where our build dates end up!

...few days ago my Spyder allocation moved up 2 weeks from 7/15 delivery to 7/1, and the lock date moved up roughly the same amount, from 4/26 to 4/13. Still being told no PCCBs ;(

I'm wondering as well. Seems too much of a coincidence, especially since it's the last workday of the month. It's almost like they are saying "we have no idea when it will be built or delivered but we have to lock the date at some point."
