Yeah... other ships historically have been in port for a little over 4 days. Meanwhile, Siem Aristotle has been moored in Emden for more than double the duration this time around.

My CT 4S has been at the port since 3/29. Per my SA, it has been completed and isn't waiting for any additional parts (heater). It was to have left the port on the 29th and to have arrived stateside 4/14, but that obviously isn't happening.

FWIW, my car got Emden on 2/22 and didn't get on a boat until 3/17. No holds.

Got the call from porche dealer yesterday
My car 4s CT was ment to be delivered 20/3
It's built but there is no heater so it's stuck waiting there are 250 cars in this position and l have been told it could now be an August delivery.

Cars being built now which were behind on the production list
So ordered after my car are being finished and delivered with no heater problems
It's mainly UK cars affected but it's a real pain

Anybody else been told this

The boat with my car arrived in JAX on Wednesday and has since left for Vera Cruz, MX. No update in the dealer's system or TYD, which isn't too crazy. But I'm wondering if it's possible that my car wasn't unloaded (maybe stuck in a bad place where it would require moving 300 cars to get to mine) and will be unloaded when the boat comes back to JAX from MX?

My car is stuck in Emden so if anyone else's car is there Its not good news
Porche are keeping the dealers in the dark too

That's weird. There's no way they would leave it on the boat if you're due to be unloaded. I've learned enough about Ro-Ro carriers to understand that's their whole job, is to fit all the cars in like a Tetris board, so get them in and out as efficiently as possible. One car out of place and you just knocked down a house of cards they need to rebuild, so they take extreme care not to ever have that happen.

I found out my car was actually off the ship when I was pointed to the spot at the bottom of the "About my vehicle" page on My Porsche where my window sticker was posted. It had the date printed at the top and the port and dealer. After that was posted, the car was on the way to the dealer and in the system within a couple of days. So they might still be doing PDI on it at the port.

I assume they have this down to a science and load in order of getting unloaded but I thought I read a post from someone that suggested this happened to them... but then again, it may have just been a delay in TYD.

There's a link to my window sticker that's been available for several days but it doesn't do anything when I click the link. I assume my car has been unloaded and it's just slow being processed. At least I'm only a 3 hour drive from JAX.

Not mine, but want to post this to show that things are moving along and deliveries are happening. FBM 4S example delivered to the dealer about a month later than expected which is not too bad.
