It's still sitting there as of 8 minutes ago. And it's anchored. I have to believe, like Diablo Dude said, that the port is full and it's waiting for its turn for a berth. But it's now been almost 3 full days since it anchored there. You'd think its turn for a berth at the port would have come through by now.
Since I have nothing better to do and my GT3 Touring came into the Port of Benicia and got processed with lightning speed (1 day) on Dec. 24th and is now sitting in my garage nice and comfy during our storm out here on the West Coast, I called the Port of Baltimore and spoke to a very helpful Administrator. She told me that the agent for the SFL Conductor is Norton Lilly Intl., and the ship is going to a private terminal at the Port called "Trade Point Atlantic".
I was able to network my way to the actual Agent that handles the SFL Conductor.
His name is Sam and he tells me that they have tremendous port congestion after the Holidays.
He said the best case scenario for the SFL Conductor would be for it to dock in the early hours of January 7th.
Hope this helps my fellow Porschephiles!

My TYD has been down all day. Wondering if it is on my end or Porsche. Anybody else experience the same today?

Mine was down all of yesterday. Are you close to a milestone? I ask given yesterday I officially locked on “scheduled for production”. I had showed scheduled for production for over a month (dates bounced around), but didn’t go official on TYD till yesterday. Maybe it was down to update a milestone? I’m supposed to start production on 1/13 and complete on 1/20, which is a week early from my initial build timeline. Crossing my fingers and hoping for the best, but only time will tell.

Another update! My 911 was updated to on vessel, Siem Cicero. The ETA of 2/3 remains unchanged and is likely inaccurate. The Boat will dock in Davisport on 1/15 supposedly.

Dock meaning arrive at Emden and ready to load cars? Any idea how long a ship "docks" for? I imagine it takes like 1 day to arrive and load cars before taking off...one can hope
TYD still says 1/13 load (delayed from 12/23)

This is interesting...there also seems to be a backup at the Port of Houston. The SFL Composer was suppose to be in on 1/1-1/2, with the Sunshine Ace (my boat) close behind at 1/4. Yesterday, the Composer updated to 1/7, the Ace moved to 1/9, and somehow the Conductor (which is obviously still in Baltimore) jumped ahead of the Ace. The Ace has been sitting in the Gulf for several days now not moving. The Composer is still waiting to enter the port. Lots of delays and no idea why they are bumping the Ace behind the Conductor. See below for the screenshot from the Houston schedule.

Whoa, I am too. Checked when I saw your note EZ E. I was 35 days out, now 22. Fingers crossed that holds.

So, I am reading from another thread that the carbon bucket seats are now on order stop in December for all models besides GT3 RS and GT4 RS??
Truth? My GTS build has the lightweight package but no allocation yet.
Need the experts to chime in here...
