Thanks - I was wondering where it is on its journey. Any further update on ETA at Davisville?
What exterior/interior did you choose?
Marine Traffic reports same eta into Davisville (Saturday night), but I don’t think the eta gets updated when the ship is only being tracked by satellite (as happens when it gets out at sea and away from the terrestrial tracking system. Ship is now heading a bit south — I’m guessing to avoid the heavy seas from the storm. So, I wouldn’t be surprised if it is at least a little behind schedule. I guess we’ll know in a few days.
My car is night blue metallic over truffle brown with chalk stitching.

According to PTYD, start of production 9/11. Completed 9/16. Arrived at Emden 9/18. On vessel 10/9, arrival into Davisville 10/23 and shipped to dealer 10/23 arriving 10/30. Hoping those are conservative estimates and it arrives sooner but it is what it is.

For those on Viking Queen, latest position is shown on the map below. Definitely getting closer to the East Coast and seems to have found its way around the heavy seas that are the remnants of the hurricane. Glad to see that. Looks like smooth sailing from here to Davisville. Only a few days to go.

I think cars that were at Emden have loaded already and departed. Mine arrived 9/16 to Emden and left port on Sara Leader on 9/21. But I am a West Coast delivery port. Currently ship is docked in Southhampton, UK. Check with your SA as your car may have already loaded. TYD still shows my car at port at Emden till 9/25 so from what I hear there is often some lag. Good luck.

Latest position of Viking Queen shown below. Looks to be about 350 nautical miles from Davisville — so seem to be on track to arrive tomorrow am as scheduled.
Thanks for update. Getting closer. I do wonder how long it will take to arrive at dealer. SA thinks about a week, but I hope he's just being overly cautious about promising anything. Anyone know the current status on the certification issue?

Looks like Viking Queen is now just hanging out. Basically stopped about 22 nautical miles from Davisville. Marine Traffic reports expected eta is now 5 am tomorrow (Sept 29). So, it seems like it will arrive about a day behind original schedule for some reason.

Only if EPA Certification has taken place. Many of us have had vehicles waiting at U.S. Ports for over a month....
FWIW, a couple of us that are getting 2021 GT4s and Spyder have had our estimated delivery dates moved forward from 12/4 to 10/30 effective today for cars that are scheduled to arrive in Benecia on 10/26. That leads me to believe that the EPA hold for our cars has been lifted, or they have an imminent date for that to happen. Hopefully you guys are close. Might be worth checking with your SA’s to see if your dates have moved at all.
Marine Traffic shows that Viking Queen docked at Davisville earlier this am. My TYD now shows that as well. TYD still shows at dealer on 10/2. I guess we’ll see on that. I know there is some skepticism about that date given lack of EPA clearance.
I am a month away from Emden but following the process with you guys. How did you guys find out what ship you were on? Is it in TYD someplace?
Yes, when you get to the “On Vessel” step of TYD, the ship name will be included. You can then use Marine Traffic or another ship tracking app/website to track the ship if interested. Your salesperson can also get you the ship name once it’s on a ship as it shows up in the internal Porsche tracking system as well.
