Hello, I am new to the forum, and soon to be a new (first time) Porsche owner. I placed my order for a C2 in January. I learned today that it is on a ship by the name of Cygnus Leader, which departed Emden on Thursday. It's scheduled to arrive in San Diego on April 8th.

I can't wait!

Is anyone else on the Cygnus Leader?

Looks like you're on the way... congrats. If you're not already definitely take advantage of some of the ship tracking sites. I found this one to be the best.

Yes!! My GTS is on the Cygnus Leader. Looks like it's about to make a stop in the UK then hopefully it's going from there directly to San Diego.

Vesselfinder seems to be my homepage now....

Hahaha... I can relate, trust me. I still check in on the Adriatic Highway from time to time.

Thanks for the links to vesselfinder. I had been experimenting with Fleetmon.com, but will put some time playing around with vesselfinder.

I wish there was a fast-forward button on this game.

The latest schedule has it at the Atlantic side of the Panama Canel at the end of March ....

It's going to be a long 3+ weeks between now and San Diego.

If you're truly obsessive, when you use Vessel Finder and it shows you the ship is in transit through the Canal, use the following link to actually see a picture of it passing through the locks.

Looks like Cygnus Leader has passed through the Azores today. Getting closer everyday.

Cygnus Leader... spotted approaching Puerto Rico. Three more days to the Panama Canal. Closer and closer and closer we get!

ETA San Diego 4/10 and then the drive up the coast to the Bay area. Come on Time machine get me there quick!

For what it's worth, and that may be nothing, but...

NYK Line publishes a ship schedule each week. Their updated schedule this week shows a revised San Diego arrival date of 4/7 for the Cygnus Leader. It was showing 4/8 for the previous few weeks. Every day helps!

I have not found our ship on the San Diego port's schedule yet. I'll keep watching.
