unbeknownst to me, but i learned that the regional port of entry for Northeast/Midatlantic was moved from Baltimore to Davisville, RI. i read Porsche moved to RI to consolidate with Audi and VW which are also at Davisville.

this explains why this boat is headed to Davisville....

SFL Conductor has been anchored near the port of Baltimore for a week now... this change you mentioned might be the cause for the delay but I am surprised why the boat didn't head there directly.

I took that picture just as the transport dropped off the car. Not an ideal place for a drop-off or a photoshoot...

A few months ago, I lost faith that the car was ever actually coming, so I purchased a different GTS that I now need to sell to make room in the garage. My wife is not thrilled about the "matching" taycans that have been delivered in the last few months. First world problem for sure, but a problem nonetheless...
