It seems like the Targas have the shortest stays with there owners. There are 104 for sale on cars.com.

I should also note that once it hit the dealership it took about a day for the app and website to update.

Haven't heard a peep from my SA, so I assume it's on the same boat as Zakato70

It might be the Crystal Ray. The Daisy Leader seems to be making a stop in Belgium, but the Crystal Ray is making a beeline for the Panama Canal.

Copy and paste from the Spyder RS delivery thread to find out what boat you're on.

It is possible to identify what boat you're on with a bit of web browser knowledge. Assuming you're using Chrome on a PC, do this:
  1. Go to the TYD website.
  2. Press the F12 key
  3. Click on the Network tab (you may have to click on a ">>" symbol to see the Network tab if it is not immediately visible.
  4. In the box to filter the requests type "api.porsche" (with no quotes)
  5. Refresh the page
  6. You should see a number of requests in the list but you want the one that has the name "USMFXXXXX" where FXXXXX is your commission number and the type is hr (NOT the one that says preflight). Select that one.
  7. After selecting that one, click on the response tab. You will see a whole bunch of textual (JSON) details about your car.
  8. In those details you will see something like this:” ident":"|MO_9283875"
  9. In a new browser tab, enter the url "https://www.vesselfinder.com/vessels/details/9283875". But replace the numbers (only the numbers) with the numbers in your data.
That is the ship you're on. Note that anyone can do this and see more data than what the UI shows. You won't get boat data until your car is on a boat obviously

Interesting. You have a BGTS as well, right? I'm thinking yours was waiting in port before mine arrived to port (mine arrived 6/7) yet mine went out on the Crystal Ray a few days before yours did.

Yeah i wonder even though both are going to the west coast that maybe yours doesnt stop in Benicia which is why i'm not on it but the Daisy Leader does.

Who knows. At least it's finally moving again! I just want my car.

Here's Crystal Ray schedule I found from Stena Glovis site. Does seem to stop in Benicia. Oh well, at least we both have ours on the way. Mine will probably be later delivery than yours since it then has to get trucked up to Seattle. Original delivery ETA was 7/27 though I am not sure if 8 days from ship arrival to full readiness at my dealer in Seattle is really possible.
