I'm in the same boat (see what I did). 9/12 car marked as complete. 9/14 at Emden. No pictures for me either.
How do you get to see what the name of the boat is once car gets loaded on? Also, what website does everyone use to track these vessels?

Once you know the name of your boat (your salesman can find out), just do a search for that ship and you will see multiple ways to track it.

Thanks very much, Here’s the build code. PRBLJWN9 However, I did do some other mods once the car landed. I had my Vossen RS-92 wheels off my previous 992 turbo installed, the car was lowered with the Techart adjustable springs and had my Techart rear carbon wing installed which I also had on the previous Turbo. I also have Kline Inconel 200 cell cats installed. The sound is so much better now. The car was also fully wrapped with Kavaca PPF. And voila!

My vehicle is on the Lake Fuxian ship headed to Northern California. Been tracking the boat online and it seems to be anchored right outside the Panama Canal for the last day and hasn’t moved.

I know there are delays at the Canal due to drought but anybody on this boat or have ideas on how long before it passes through the canal?

I'm curious how you know that you car is on that ship. My TYD had mine leaving Emden on the 14th for Davisville so it would make sense if those dates were correct that it's on that ship. But I haven't had any confirmation, TYD has not been updated and my dealers info says it left Germany on the 13th. I guess it makes little difference, I can't control whats happening, I just like knowing.

All assumptions at this point, but I did talk with my SA and he had the same thoughts according to him my car is due at the dealership October 3rd.

fingers crossed hopefully TYD confirms this soon, if we miss this one the Siem Cicero is due in Davisville Oct 7th.

My freeze date is slowly shifting back also. Started at 9/13 then 9/18 now 9/20. Order confirmed 7/24. Still showing a delivery date of 11/13 which seems like a pipe dream. Happy to be in the system with an order though.

I'm thinking my car is still in Emden. I believe TYD would have updated if it wasn't. My dealer doesn't have any updates either. Still hoping, but things could be delayed some. On the other hand I don't see anyone getting TYD updates, so who knows. Buying a car shouldn't be so confusing.

BTW the TYD just updated and the leaving Emden port date was pushed back to 9/27

For those who’s babies are already waiting at the Emden port, here is the latest vessel schedule.

My date slipped again. Order confirmed 7/27, and freeze now back to 10/8 (original was 9/4, but has slipped 4-5 times now), delivery now 12/10. No big deal, and somewhat expected. Assuming some options and other pressures pushing it to the right, and honestly don't think I'll see the car before Jan/Feb at this rate.
