Well i ordered my Taycan GTS Blue in early May and the “system”tells me it is now on a boat coming to Canada.
I am assuming an early September delivery ( I am an optimist). Reading all of your other stories I am hopeful what is delivered is what I ordered and unscathed.

Now I can read thru the dealer pickup checklist and prepare!

You ask a wise question! All Porsche shows me is a dot in the middle of the ocean. Then again I will believe it when I touch the actual car. I need a glass of patience.
You can find your ship without talking to the dealer, but it takes a little bit of detective work.

First go to the track your dream page on a PC. Make a note of your full commission number in the address bar up top.

Porsche Taycan Finally my taycan is on a boat. 1691163535438



From there, you need to bring up the developer tools. I'm using the Microsoft Edge browser, but others are similar. I press F12 to bring up the tools. You want to select the Network tab because you want to sneak a peek at the order data being sent to your browser.

Now, refresh the web page and you'll see all of the various files being sent to display the web page.

Once the files have finished loading, click on the name column to sort by name and look for a file that has the same name as the full commission number from the address bar.

Click on that file, and make sure you have "preview" selected so you can browse the data. This is the unique information about your order that TYD uses to customize the page for you.

If you expand the currentLocation bit, you'll see a section labeled position. The identity of the position for my car is IMO_9289908 that's the International Maritime Organization serial number of the ship the car is on. In my case, that's the Lake Taupo.

Go to shipinfo.net Find a ship location, online on the map. Tankers, yachts, containerships, cruiseships. Locations and coordinates. (shipinfo.net) and search for that IMO number and it will show you what ship you're on and where your car is.

Or, you can email your SA and ask them which ship the car is on.
