When will the Lynx start arriving at dealers, especially interested in Oregon arrivals?

I have deposits on 2 Lynx with Hobie dealer Lake George NY. They told me the boat,
boats, have arrived (5 of them, I'm the first buyer, reserved 2 back in May) So, when I called
For Planned pick up and pay balance was informed that none of the 5 have seats or drives and
they don't have any idea when they will arrive . Is there any dealership that has complete Lynxs ?
I could get my 2 $500 deposits back and go to another. Timing of upcoming extended family members
vacations starting next week. Also a concern... What stops dealer from getting just a couple of seats/drives and
Sell them to new walk-in that says can't wait...but another guy has given deposits on 2....Ok its yours..he can wait
( we got his deposits)...So, If this is isolated case and every other dealership has complete equipment...I'm intrested in trying to get 2 complete Lynxs.

Looks like all Lynx seats have been shipped. No GT Drives on order either, so must have shipped. Check with your dealer.

My dealer, Kayak City in Sacramento, CA says they haven't received any parts. Are you sure all the parts have shipped?

@mmiller, 6 days and no response? Are these lynx parts being shipped from Hobie HQ in California, or directly from China?

Will people who ordered Lynx kayaks take delivery before the end of summer?

Update...Today my 2 new Lynxs are being delivered ( one of each color ) The seats and drives arrived. If I couldn't take complete delivery by today I had asked for deposits to be refunded. The boats look super and look forward to years of great times during predawn/sunset calm water touring on Lake George.
Lake George kayak co. was great and did everything they could to get boats to me asap. 8)

My dealer finally received the parts! I'm picking it up on Wednesday!

Now at least I can get on the water while waiting for the accessories.
