I ordered the new Lowrance Active Target System from Russell Marine Products. The shipment has been delayed and now they are being told, "Hopefully mid-January." Has anyone else, (besides sponsored pro's ) received their units? Thanks!

No idea either also ordered from Russell Marine. Do not like this type of marketing where they cannot quote an accurate ship date. No doubt russell marine and others are just guessing based on what they are being told.
Heck may sell my boat by the time this thing ships.

Happens every time with new releases these days. Word spreads infinitely faster now and their marketing outpaces production.

It was a marketing ploy that worked perfectly for them, release details right before Black Friday to keep buyers from getting Garmins and livescope. Claim a late December delivery date, “just in time for Christmas”...and then have nothing to really sell until March. Bravo Lowrance, you got them!

If this is true, Hummingbird will probably not be available until 22

But I did see where one guy did receive his AT, but he ordered directly from Navico.

Could this delayed release have anything to do with BASS delaying the Classic from March to June and with it the Expo where a lot of new stuff is introduced?

COVID is still running wild throughout the world and is impacting operations, maufacturing and logistics. We're still amid a pandemic, folks.

Seems it all depends on where you ordered it from. 1 guy ordered from navico and got his and another ordered from cabelas and his shipped already.
