Garmin Force™ Trolling Motor Remote

Unlock Seamless Control On the Water

This remote isn't just a button-pusher—it's a game-changer for serious anglers. Its transflective, sunlight-readable display ensures crystal-clear visibility even under the harshest glare, so you never miss a heading or speed reading. Point in any direction, and the motor responds instantly with smooth, precise movement. No more awkward joystick maneuvers or fumbling with boat-side controls.

• Gesture-Based Steering: Tilt and point for hands-free navigation—ideal for solo trips or when both hands are busy with rods and reels.
• Customizable Keys: Program buttons to trigger functions on your compatible Garmin chartplotter, like waypoints or sonar views, streamlining your entire setup.
• Rugged Build: Fully water-resistant and buoyant, it bounces back if it hits the deck or takes an accidental swim, ready for the next cast.

Engineered with Garmin's signature reliability, it integrates seamlessly into the Force ecosystem, enhancing the motor's quiet power and GPS anchoring capabilities for spot-on positioning.

Elevate Your Fishing Game

Picture this: You're drift-fishing a deep drop-off, and a school of walleye appears on your sonar. With a quick gesture, reposition silently without spooking the fish. Bass anglers love how it maintains stealthy approaches in shallow cover, while offshore enthusiasts appreciate the steady heading holds against choppy swells. This remote pairs perfectly with LiveScope or Panoptix sonar, letting you react faster to structure and baitfish schools.

Beyond basic control, it supports advanced maneuvers like autopilot holds and return-to-home functions when linked with your Garmin marine network. Anglers report fewer fatigue-inducing adjustments, more quality time casting, and consistently better catches thanks to precise boat positioning.

Built to Withstand the Elements

Garmin doesn't cut corners on marine gear. This remote shrugs off spray, rain, and submersion, floating upright to grab easily. Its ergonomic grip fits gloved hands during cold mornings, and the transflective screen avoids backlighting drain in bright conditions, extending battery life on long outings. Backed by a robust limited warranty, it's a long-term investment in worry-free boating.

Pro Tips for Setup and Use

Mount your Force motor cleanly, then connect the remote via its dedicated port for plug-and-play operation. Customize key assignments in your chartplotter settings to match your workflow—maybe one for marking hotspots, another for zoom control. Test point-and-go in calm water first to dial in sensitivity. For multi-motor setups, it prioritizes the primary Force unit, keeping things simple. Regular firmware updates via Garmin's tools ensure peak performance and new features.
