Garmin Force Kraken Trolling Motor Black 48 Shaft with GT56UHD-TR

Unlock Precision Power on the Water with the Garmin Force Kraken

Imagine gliding silently across choppy bays or holding steady over a prime fishing spot without lifting a finger. The Garmin Force Kraken trolling motor redefines control for anglers tackling deep V hulls and tight bow setups. With its unmatched 100 pounds of thrust—verified under ISO 13342 standards—this beast delivers relentless power whether you're battling currents in brackish waters or drifting through freshwater haunts. Paired with the included GT56UHD-TR transducer, it paints a crystal-clear picture of the underwater world, helping you zero in on trophy fish before they know you're there.

What sets this motor apart? It's not just brute force; it's smart engineering. The brushless design sips battery life at 24 or 36 volts, letting you fish longer without the hum of a dying power source. And that whisper-quiet operation? Fish stay oblivious, giving you the edge in spooky-clear shallows.

Anchor Lock: Your Unwavering Spot-Holder

Drift woes are history. This motor's advanced Anchor Lock uses multi-band GPS and an integrated AHRS heading sensor to pin your boat exactly where you want it. No more constant adjustments—just set it and cast. Anglers rave about its pinpoint accuracy, even in windy conditions or strong tides, making it a game-changer for vertical jigging or live bait rigs.

• Holds position within inches using dual-frequency GPS.
• Heading hold keeps you oriented, no swinging.
• Perfect for multi-species pursuits from bass to stripers.

Seamless Chartplotter Integration for Effortless Navigation

Pair it wirelessly with your Garmin chartplotter to draw custom routes, serpentine patterns, or high-speed passes. The motor takes over, following your plan while you focus on the rod tip. Gesture steering via the included remote lets you point where to go—ideal for solo trips or when both hands are busy with a fighter.

Installation is a breeze with the pivot-style mount, reclaiming precious deck real estate on bow-limited boats. The rugged composite shaft laughs off rocks, waves, and saltwater corrosion, backed by a limited lifetime warranty on the shaft itself.

Superior Sonar Imaging Straight Out of the Box

The GT56UHD-TR transducer isn't your average sonar—it's Ultra High-Definition for jaw-dropping clarity. Spot bait balls, structure, and lurking predators with minimal noise interference. Key specs include:

• CHIRP high-wide (150-240 kHz) down to 800 feet in freshwater.
• ClearVü and SideVü at 455/800/1000 kHz for side-to-side scanning up to 500 feet.
• Easy LiveScope integration by threading the cable through the shaft—keeps your deck tidy.

Experience returns so clean, you'll distinguish individual fish tails from weeds. Variable speed control in 20 steps plus a lighted direction indicator ensure intuitive handling from the wireless remote or optional foot pedal.

Built for the Toughest Conditions

From open-water swells to brackish inlets, this IPX7-rated motor thrives in freshwater, saltwater, and everything in between. The high-efficiency propeller maximizes thrust efficiency, while advanced corrosion protection shields internals. Battery status at a glance means no surprises mid-bite. Quiet above and below the surface, it won't scatter your quarry—proven in real-world tests by pros chasing everything from walleye to redfish.
