[minstril]

Clipper has departed Emden. Time to start obsessively checking TYD to see if it updates…

I’m officially on Glovis Clipper!!

Mine made it on the Glovis Clipper as well! What a delightful bit of news.

No update for me yet, so I’ll bet I got skipped again. That’d be the third boat. I’m starting to think maybe my car is missing an amp (ordered Burmester), so they’re letting it rot at port.

Also made it on the Glovis Clipper!

Wow such quick updates!

Being on this boat is last resort for me, unfortunately if I’m not on it I have to cancel.

For those who did get on, I’m curious what your dates have been. For me, I started production in July before the shutdown, CP 8.0 on august 30, arrived at emden Oct 18 presumably after getting a 12v. Still no luck.

Just FYI mine is pretty similar to yours - started production pre shutdown and finished afterwards (on Aug 18). I got on the Glovis Stella. I think it must be due to burmester IMO

Thinking you’re right. I am headed to a different port though (San Diego).

Mine got there mid oct, I believe this will be the 3rd missed boat. I have Bose and have been notified everything is on the car.

good luck fellas

I have Burmester on my Turbo sedan order which is also headed to San Diego for what it's worth. No indication from the dealership that any parts are missing. Dates for everything that has happened so far:

08/11/21 - Order Requested at Dealership
03/13/22 - Order Allocation
03/14/22 - Order Created
03/29/22 - Scheduled For Production
04/30/22 - Change Freeze Point Date
05/25/22 - Scheduled For Production
07/14/22 - Start Production
07/27/22 - Production Completed CP8.0
07/27/22 - Ready For Transport
07/29/22 - In Transit To Emden Port
09/26/22 - Arrival Emden Port
11/23/22 - On Vessel (Glovis Clipper)

It sat in storage between the factory and the port between 7/29 and 9/26, presumably waiting for a 12V battery.

And on 20 November, TYD changed, and while it still says my car will be on the Glovis Clipper, the "on vessel" is now estimated to be 2 December 2022 (another fake Friday date?) instead of 18 November 2022. 2 December is later than the Glovis Clipper schedule that I saw, so my Tacan literally "missed the boat" on a 2022 delivery.

And today, 23 November, TYD updated again to say that yes my GTS is indeed on the Glovis Clipper, "on vessel" actual 23 November, no longer 2 December. So a surprise, but a good one.

For those who've received their cars already, how long after arriving at the destination port does the car typically become available for pick-up at the dealer?

 

[Mookow]

My delivery ETA changed from Dec to Jan and now back to December.

 

[gt3dude]

Anymore ships scheduled for west coast deliveries soon?
