{"product_id":"garmin-spy-pole-42-motorized-sonar-pole-mount","title":"Garmin Spy Pole 42\" Motorized Pole Mount","description":"\u003cp class=\"nvn-hero\"\u003eThe Garmin Spy pole is a motorized pole mount that aims your LiveScope and GT360UHD transducers for you, wirelessly. Point the beam at a brush pile, lock it there, or sweep for fish without ever reaching over the bow. The 42-inch shaft is built for 50-inch Force and Force Pro trolling motors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you fish live sonar, you already know the drill. You've got a transducer on a hand-turned pole up front, and every time you want to look somewhere new you're leaning over the bow to spin it by hand. The Garmin Spy pole ends that. It's a motorized pole mount that aims your LiveScope and GT360UHD transducers electrically, so you can steer the beam from your chartplotter, a gesture remote, or the included foot control while you keep casting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere's what makes it click. Three control modes cover how anglers actually hunt fish. SpyLock locks the beam onto a point of interest, like a brush pile, a rock mound, or a saved waypoint, and holds it there while the boat moves. SpyScan sweeps the pole back and forth on its own so you can cover water and find structure without touching a thing. And SpyLink pairs the pole to your Force or Force Pro trolling motor, so when you drop anchor lock you can drive the beam right from your Force foot pedal. Garmin's True Motion technology ties it together, keeping scans true to location as the boat drifts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 42-inch shaft is the size Garmin recommends for a 50-inch Force or Force Pro. It bolts straight to the motor with the included mounting plate and a quick-release, reversible bracket, so pulling it off at the ramp is a two-second job. Prefer to keep it off the motor? You can deck-mount or gunnel-mount it instead, though that route needs a few extra accessories. Shaft depth is adjustable, so you can tune how deep the transducer rides for the water you fish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eControl is where this thing shines. The included gesture remote clips to your rod, rides on your hat, or works as a handheld, and a flick of the wrist swings the pole where you're looking. The included low-profile foot control keeps both hands free for fishing. You can run up to five gesture remotes, one foot control, one heading sensor, one trolling motor, and a chartplotter network all talking to the pole at once. On a boat with more than one angler, everybody gets a remote.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the transducer side, it carries the LVS32, LVS34, or LVS62 LiveScope transducer on the included adjustable-perspective bottom mount, which sets forward, down, and perspective angles at 0, 7.5, 15, and 22.5 degrees. Mount a GT360UHD and you get OneVu sonar with True Motion, then add LiveScope for a live 3D overlay. Note that the transducer itself isn't included with this pole, it comes with the bundle versions, so make sure you've got the right transducer on hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA couple of real-world notes from the water. Give the pole its own fused power run rather than sharing a circuit with your LiveScope black box, since a shared feed can brown out and reset under load. It draws about 18 watts in normal use and up to 70 watts at peak, on a wired 2-meter cable protected by an 8-amp fuse. And before you put the boat away for the cold months, hit the drive screw with a little marine grease. That keeps the motorized section from binding when temperatures drop. The above-water electronics are IPX7 rated and the pole is cleared for freshwater, brackish, and saltwater, so it'll live on a bay boat or a big-water rig just the same.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWho's this for? Serious live-sonar anglers who are tired of manually spinning a pole and want to keep their eyes on the rod. If you're running a Force or Force Pro and fishing LiveScope hard, the Spy pole is the piece that turns your bow into a proper sonar turret. It's backed by a 3-year warranty with a limited lifetime warranty on the shaft.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"nvn-features\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMotorized pole aims LiveScope and GT360UHD transducers with electric steering, so you never reach over the bow to spin a hand pole\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThree control modes: SpyLock point locking, SpyScan automatic sweep search, and SpyLink pairing with your Force or Force Pro foot pedal in anchor lock\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTrue Motion technology keeps scans true to location as the boat moves or drifts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e42-inch shaft sized for 50-inch Force and Force Pro trolling motors, with adjustable shaft depth\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eQuick-release, reversible mount bolts to Force and Force Pro with the included plate, with deck and gunnel mounting supported via accessories\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIncluded gesture remote and low-profile foot control let you position the pole from your rod, your hat, or hands-free\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCarries LVS32, LVS34, and LVS62 LiveScope transducers plus GT360UHD OneVu scanning, on an included adjustable-perspective bottom mount\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAdjustable perspective bottom mount sets forward, down, and perspective angles at 0, 7.5, 15, and 22.5 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRuns up to five gesture remotes, one foot control, one heading sensor, one trolling motor, and a chartplotter network at once\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIPX7 above-water components rated for freshwater, brackish, and saltwater\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDraws 18 W typical and 70 W max on a wired 2 m cable with an 8 A fuse\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBacked by a 3-year warranty with a limited lifetime warranty on the shaft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-trust\"\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy from NVN Marine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAuthorized Garmin reseller, full manufacturer warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNMEA member and ABYC certified, advice from real boat techs\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSame-day shipping before 3 PM ET on in-stock items\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNY headquarters and Fort Lauderdale flagship retail store\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-faq\"\u003e\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003eWhat does the Garmin Spy pole actually do?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eIt's a motorized pole mount for your live sonar transducer.
