Garmin Force® Kraken Black 48" Trolling Motor w/GT56UHD Transducer

Discover Unmatched Power on the Water

Imagine gliding silently across choppy lakes or open bays, positioning your boat exactly where the big fish lurk—without breaking a sweat. The Force Kraken Black 48" trolling motor transforms those dreams into reality for serious anglers tackling larger vessels with high freeboards. Its beefy 48-inch shaft dives deep enough to handle waves, while the innovative pivot-style mount slips into tight bow spaces on deep-V hulls. Built for those long days chasing bass, walleye, or saltwater trophies, this motor combines raw thrust with smart tech that keeps you focused on the bite.

What sets it apart? It's not just another prop in the water—it's a game-changer engineered for endurance in harsh conditions. Anglers report staying out longer thanks to its efficient design, which squeezes more runtime from your batteries compared to traditional setups.

Brute Strength Meets Smart Efficiency

Delivering the highest thrust in its class at 100 lbs, this beast powers through current and wind like few others. The brushless motor tech isn't hype—it's a real-world upgrade that runs cooler, quieter, and longer. Forget the whine of brushed motors; this one whispers past spooky fish, even submerged.

• Optimized for Rough Waters: Thrives at 24 or 36 volts, perfect for bigger boats facing open-water chop.
• Battery Life That Lasts: Efficient design means fewer recharge stops, so you fish harder from dawn till dusk.
• Corrosion Fighter: Composite shaft and sealed components shrug off saltwater spray and freshwater grime.

Pro tip: Pair it with deep-cycle batteries matched to your boat's draw for peak performance—users swear by this combo for all-day adventures.

Effortless Control From Anywhere

Steering shouldn't feel like wrestling a tiller. With wireless integration, your compatible Garmin chartplotter takes over, letting you autopilot routes while casting. The floating remote puts point-and-go navigation in your hand, and smartwatch connectivity means wrist-controlled adjustments without leaving the rod.

Anchor Lock shines here—GPS precision holds your spot against wind or current, ideal for vertical jigging or live-lining. No more drifting off structure; stay locked on honey holes effortlessly.

Installation Made Simple

Pivot mount hugs the bow, saving space on cramped decks. The longer shaft clears high rails, and everything assembles with basic tools. Seasoned installers note it mounts quicker than fixed styles, getting you on the water faster.

Crystal-Clear Sonar Insights

Bundled with the GT56UHD transducer, you get ultra-high-definition scans right out of the gate. The brushless motor minimizes interference for pristine images—spot bait schools, bottom contours, and lurking predators with ease.

Bonus for LiveScope fans: Route the cable cleanly through the shaft (with the right accessory) for tangle-free deployment. This setup delivers real-time views without the noise pollution that plagues lesser motors.

"It's like having eyes underwater—combined with the thrust, I cover more water and catch more fish." – Feedback from a Great Lakes guide.

Built Tough for Real-World Fishing

Every element screams durability: high-efficiency prop bites water efficiently, shaft flexes without snapping, and the whole unit laughs off UV, impacts, and corrosion. Whether pounding bays or drifting reservoirs, it's ready for abuse.

Maintenance is straightforward—rinse after saltwater runs, inspect prop for nicks, and store dry. This longevity means fewer replacements and more time reeling.
