Multiple lines.

Your dealer has access to the schedule once the boat floats, but at port, it's in Porsche's hands. Good luck.

I am not sure about the especific line, must be many different ones, but one thing that I know for sure is that they use Panalpina as their agent.

Default Carnation Ace

Mine is on the Carnation Ace too. Dealer told me today that ETA to rhode island is 3/30. I hope your estimate of today is right!

Me too. My build is due to complete tomorrow.

Does anyone know that if a car completes build can it immediately go on the next ship, or are there other steps it needs to go through before being ready to ship?

My car is on vessel and landing this week but my dealer said that they is a delay in a software remap that may hold the car in port a few extra days. Stick Shift car.

Hmmm. My car is on the Harmony Leader, due into San Diego on 4/6. I don't see that one listed on the VW logistics sheet in the previous post, but the same ship arrived in Brunswick, GA over the weekend.

finished build... goes and they check it... then goes on train to emden.. from there it's first come first serve...

usually 5 days is my experience to get on vessel...

once vessel lands, about a good week of it sitting there and being checked out and then on truck to dealer.

Sorry to resurrect a dead thread, but does anyone know what vessel Porsche use to ship 991's to Hong Kong? My TT docks on Sep 6 apparently.

I'm trying to hunt for the ship on https://www.vesselfinder.com

they dont exclusively share with VWL, my car shipped on Cronus Leader back in July and was not listed on VWL.
