The Garmin Force Trolling Motor is engineered to enhance your fishing experience with its powerful, efficient, and quiet performance. It features a high-efficiency brushless motor that operates at both 24V and 36V, delivering thrust comparable to competitors' 36V motors even at 24V. This versatility allows anglers to cover more water and stay on their spots longer, even in challenging conditions.
- High Power and Efficiency: The Force trolling motor is 30% more powerful than existing freshwater trolling motors, enabling faster movement between fishing spots and better resistance against winds and currents.
- Integrated Sonar: Equipped with a built-in transducer, the Force provides Garmin CHIRP traditional and Ultra High-Definition ClearVü and SideVü scanning sonars, offering clear imaging of fish and underwater structures.
- Wireless Control: The motor can be controlled via a wireless foot pedal or a water-resistant, floating remote control. The foot pedal operates wirelessly using AA batteries, with a battery life of up to one year under typical fishing conditions.
- Autopilot Functionality: With built-in GPS and heading sensors, the Force offers precise virtual anchor lock, autopilot functionality, and gesture steering, allowing anglers to set routes and follow tracks seamlessly.
