That's an insane wait time but unfortunately, it is what it is. I know at this time, Artesian is at least 12-16 weeks behind, mostly due to lack of parts. I know that the lower tier Artesian's like the Garden Spa's and the South Seas Spa's are using Gecko packs temporarily simply due to the unavailability of Balboa Packs.

My tub, which was ordered for dealer stock back in Aug of 2020 and was delivered to the dealer the beginning of May and to me, mid May. A friend of mine who bought an Artesian that was ordered for dealer stock in Nov of 20 has a latest estimate for delivery in October, originally believed to be Mid July.

Not sure how they can get caught up unless they do stop taking new orders for several months.

they will have to, again just letting everyone order as much as they want is not sustainable right now, you need to limit your dealers so spas can go out in 5-7 months otherwise that list will just continue to build especially now as we head into state fair season/fall which is obviously a very busy time for dealers across the country.  Hopefully these big Artesian dealers were savvy enough to pick up some other manufacturers otherwise attempting to sell spas with a 12-18+ month time-frame is going to be a huge struggle imo.

My dealer already was a dealer for Marquis and they had said when I bought mine that they had another line coming in, I believe it was Bullfrog but I'm not 100% sure and my memory is faded on that. I do know it was a brand I saw elsewhere and wouldn't work for me due to nothing that would fit in the opening the tub had to go thru.
