Update: Porsche tracking sheet says POI is San Diego but ship is directly west of SD and still headed north. Destination on ship tracking web site suggests Long Beach. Maybe captain is planning delivery direct to NorCal ( sorry SoCal folks) or....pirates!
Hi, Mike.
Looks like it is heading to and is very close to Long Beach. Should be there shortly. Wonder if that is the unloading spot? Perhaps it is dropping some cars at Long Beach and others at San Diego? So odd. Not sure how it works.
Strange.. Destination says US PHU in 7 hours.... Taking a break, off to bed. Let me know if it tries to sneak off to Hawaii before dropping the cars of.
My previous car purchase offloaded north of Long Beach at Port Hueneme
I knew BMWs get delivered there but didn't know Porsches do...guess we'll find out soon enough. Just weird that it said San Diego on our status report...
Interesting.. My sheet says Entry port San Diego . Planned 1/17, Expected 1/03.. Then Exit San Diego, AND Dealer Inventory 1/17. Anyone have a dealer inventory on this of before 1/17? -- This is getting too OCD.

Ok, I admit it...that was a BMW. Thought perhaps same logistics. Best of luck with delivery.

Jeff, looks like Lyra Leader bypassed Long Beach. Been googling a bunch of stuff and found a reference to Port Hueneme in Ventura County as a West Coast disembarking point for Porsche. Then I saw Hoopumper's post. The destination for the ship on the vessel tracking website is US PHU (Port HUeneme?) so Hoopumpers reference makes sense. Going to bed...by morning I expect the damn thing to be docked somewhere!
Edit: Confirmed.....the vessel schedule for the Port of Hueneme shows the arrival of the Lyra Leader on Jan 2.

My thoughts exactly - I don't know anything about how ports work but Ia assume it would not drop some cars off at Port Hueneme and then others back at San Diego on its way back? Would not make any sense - just confused why San Diego is listed on our production schedule. Guess we'll know soon enough!!
