I hope the dates @zanary has on TYD are correct. My TYD is 2 days later. I think something may be off with the dates on @zanary TYD schedule, the Jiuyang Blossom departure date does not align with the actual date.
It might be that Ruby Star Neo T is the first off the boat!

@ThrustNormal Don't lose hope. For Jiuyang, we didn't receive the e-mails until 3 - 4 hours after the ship left.

IF there is the unfortunate case you don't receive the e-mail that you're on Poseidon, I definitely suggest you contact Porsche North America customer service to let them know your car has been sitting there since January and you've missed 4 - 5 ships at this point. Definitely a case to be angry. Still hoping you get an e-mail soon.

I don't want to jinx us but based on this, Jiuyang should arrive in SD by 04/20 - 04/21 and Benicia by 04/23. Assuming there's capacity at the ports for it to dock of course.

Getting real!!
You can almost see it in the cam now.

Keep the web link opened and watch it pass the bridge and into the locks... This web cam image nearly matches the map in MarineTraffic app.

Live Cam - https://multimedia.panama-canal.com/Webcams/gatun.html

Update 1: Blossom is completely hidden by MSC Ronit, but it should be fully visible shortly once again as it's going through the locks on the Atlantic side...
Update 2: Now fully visible as MSC Ronit locks are being drained and is getting lower exposing Blossom.
Update 3: MSC Ronit is departing the locks.

for the next set of Locks it should travel through. Cocoli on the Pacific Side, and once it clear, then it's on to SD and
Benicia!!!

Great Status - Thank you @zanary !
It might go through the Pedro Miguel Locks and the Miraflores Locks due to it not requiring the larger Cocoli Locks. Hoegh Trooper is currently in-between the Pedro Miguel Locks and the Miraflores Locks, and she is about the same size of JB.

Just spoke with Porsche North America-they are a joke!! They said they know nothing and the best point of contact is the dealer.

Excellent point. Here are the links to the other web cams but I'll provide updates as well becuase we are so close to reaching the Pacific Ocean...

Cocoli Locks = https://multimedia.panama-canal.com/Webcams/cocoli.html
or
Pedro Miguel Locks = https://multimedia.panama-canal.com/...rro-luisa.html
and
Miraflores Locks = https://multimedia.panama-canal.com/...iraflores.html

OK, we're maybe 13.2 minutes away from the next locks. Will it be:

OPTION 1 - Mirador Pedro Miguel followed by Miraflores Locks
OR

OPTION 2 - Cocoli Locks

UPDATE 1 - We have a winner. It is taking option #1 above... The Pedro Miguel camera points backwards, so you will only see Blossom as it is leaving the locks, not as it enters the locks...

Waiting for the Glovis Courage to arrive in Emden on 4/22 and hoping to get loaded for the trip to Benicia.
