Default Next vessel to Benicia?

howdy, campers:

My 992 has been at Emden since 12/20 (two weeks ahead of schedule) but TYD still lists 1/14 as On Vessel date - bound for Benicia, presumably. Does anyone know which vessel is next to depart for Benicia? Is it normal for a car to sit at origin port for ~ 4 weeks or is it likely that it was already put on vessel and TYD is just out of date?

Thanks!

@dougoo6 Thank you. I obsessed over it for far too long. Yours looks fantastic too. Night blue is a great color made more unusual by it's recent discontinuing!

I will keep an eye out for you around BK.

Anything you like in particular about the Mach-E?

The thing I enjoy most about the Mach-E is not having to go to the gas station. Seriously though, it's well put together, looks great in my opinion, has plenty of room for hauling people and stuff, is pretty darn quick, and actually handles very nicely. I just plug it into my 120V outlet every night and whenever I'm home during the day, and it gives me enough power to tool around town. I'm completely sold on EVs and will always have one in the garage. That being said, I can't wait until my 992 gets here in two weeks and one day.

Thanks, @brianja . It's an obsession for sure.

Same here - I'm sure we'll cross paths one of the days.

hmm but that ship departs on 1/24 whereas TYD is saying 1/14 for “on vessel”. Maybe there is another ship? I am spending way too much time on this 😞

Thanks for the perspective, I saw one on the road yesterday and it looks good, nice to hear it handles well.
Late New's Years present for you in two weeks! I finally got my production date for my C2S yesterday: March 4th!

Scroll down to shipping portal, select US- West and East Coast, and then select Volkswagen Export. The shipping schedule will download. The current schedule is attached.
Am I doing something wrong? Trying to download the most recent schedule using this link and for some reason am only able to see week 29 (July/August 2021)

You aren't doing anything wrong...they haven't been uploading the new versions to their website since then.

A few members here somehow get ahold of the more current ones (perhaps directly sent to them) and share them with the group.

Anyone have a premier Vessel Finder account where they can give an update on the Siem Confucius ? It's gone missing for 3-days now in the North Atlantic.

Thanks for letting me know. Hopefully someone shares a current one soon!

They emailed the contact listed on the outdated one and asked them to email them back the current one.

Getting close now! Arrived at dealer this morning according to TYD after offloading at Benicia 12/30. I’ll likely be picking up next weekend - can’t wait!
