Mine is going to PECLA and also has a 12/16 delivery date but who knows
Mine is showing on Grand Phoenix on TYD being delivered at LAPEC on 12/09. However, Porsche NA Exec Cust. Svc. says it's on the Glovis Stella which shows arriving in San Francisco, not LA/SanDiego. They also said it's being shipped without a battery and one would be installed at the port (yes the actual port-not at the dealer. They were very specific about this process), so wondering if the vehicle is on one (Grand Phoenix or Glovis Stella) and the battery on the other. Which would most likely further delay the 12/9 delivery date at LAPEC.

You should reach out to PEC LA to see if they'll let you schedule a pick up date. Seems like they are pretty backed up again given the back log of vehicles that did not get delivered in the fall. I originally got an email in August that they would reach out to schedule time once the car is on the boat. That never happened and I had to reach out to them to schedule a time and I couldn't get a date until January 11th

Did some research about the wait time and looks like Glovis Stella fits the description of NeoPanamax (199m x 35m)

Just hope that I am wrong and it doesn't have to spend 2 weeks waiting here or that it already has the reservation and doesn't have to wait the full wait time.

We may be in for quite a wait to pass through the canal...

On the flip side, it does look like Glovis Sigma is already on its way through the canal. Sigma arrived on the 22nd as well, and already starting to make it through...

Nice, my fear is unfounded then. They probably reserved the crossing slot in advance.
Fingers crossed that's the case! Perhaps with the Week 47 schedule having the Panama stop being 11/23, maybe it's reserved for the 23rd, so for now it's anchored until tomorrow when the reservation comes up

Yeah, Since Glovis Sigma has Nov 22 down on the schedule for Panama and it passed through today. Glovis Stella got Nov 23.

Thanks for all of the research from you two! I had no idea how to figure out when it would cross and there were a worrying large number of ships anchored on the Atlantic side of the canal.

The vessel is now moving... let's see...

I've created a script to pull the images of the vessel passing through the locks. Will share the images/timelapses when that happened.

Sample of the timelapse of Glovis Sigma (not of our Glovis Stella) passing through Cocoli locks exiting the Panama Canal to the Pacific yesterday.

I have a GT3 on the Glovis Stella. Thinking of just cancelling the PECLA delivery and just get it at the dealership just to i can get the car sooner. Ive been waiting since September.. I actually went to Germany and while i was there they cancelled the delivery so im over the whole thing.

Will share the images when I have them
