Anyone know when Glovis Cosmos is docking San Diego?

Per the Stena Glovis schedule, Cosmos should arrive in SD around 04/11. Right now it’s south of Cabo San Lucas so the 04/11 ETA seems about right - might be a day early.
The various shipping schedules seem to be more accurate of dates than the TYD dates. In certain cases, I think Porsche adds a bit of fudge factor to dates to be cautious - which is good I guess.

100% agree. It’s getting real….
Per Marine Traffic future tracking, Jiuyang should be north of Aruba by tomorrow Tuesday morning. It should have favorable currents the rest of the way to Santa Marta and then the Panama Canal. It should arrive in Santa Marta on time on 04/10 per plan.

Great news. JIUYANG BLOSSOM has finally entered Terrestrial AIS range once again... Getting really close to Santa Maria now... Made the long journey across the Atlantic. Should be smooth sailing to Columbia, Panama Canal, San Diego and then Benicia... Still cruising at 19 mph... ETA is still showing as 4/10 at 08:00...
Exciting!
Exciting!

@Marin Vizsla Any insight into Emden departures this week? My C2S arrived at Emden 3/28 along with several others and the TYD app still says departure is 4/12, but I can’t figure out which Porsche RORO it might be. I thought the Poseidon Leader, but it appears docked

If I recall correctly, you’re SD bound right?
The TYD departure date of 04/12 still aligns with NYK ship Poseidon Leader. It just arrived in Zeebrugge BE yesterday and still has to stop by Bremerhaven before docking at Emden.
Good luck on getting the Milestone 8 email notification over this weekend. That’s your true confirmation that you got on the boat.

Just curious, do you know which models are now being offered with allocations at MSRP? How did you hear about this, did you speak with dealers yourself? Can you say if it is on the Carrera base, T or higher trims like the S or GTS?

A buddy of mine called a few dealers around SoCal. He's been off and on shopping around for a 992 allocation since last summer and mentioned that he was finally able to negotiate at MSRP for a C2S allocation at both South Bay and out in Santa Barbara. He really wants a GTS but everywhere is still asking an ADM for GTS' if you can actually find an allocation. I personally haven't shopped around as I have my allocation and don't want to walk away from it since I've been waiting since Nov. I will still ask if my SA can do me a solid favor and sell me the equivalent amount of service contracts instead of just an ADM but I'm not holding my breath. I believe most SAs make more on the front end of a deal rather than the back end. An ADM is considered the front end and all service contracts, financing point mark ups, etc. are all part of the back end of a deal.

World map update as of this afternoon. Glovis Companion seems to still be anchored east of the city in the bay waiting for the Benicia port to clear up.

Poseidon Leader docked at Bremerhaven earlier today Tues around 1pm Pacific. It should be departing for Emden in a day or so. Let’s hope you get your Get Out of Jail Free card on Sat or Sun. Keep us updated!
