{"product_id":"qbp332713","title":"Garmin Force Freshwater Bow-Mount Trolling Motor, 24\/36V, 80\/100 lb Thrust, Anchor Lock, Autopilot, UHD ClearVü and SideVü Sonar, Wireless Foot Pedal","description":"\u003ch6\u003eOverview\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Garmin Force is a bow-mount trolling motor for freshwater boats that runs on 24 V or 36 V and is rated up to 80 lb of thrust at 24 V or 100 lb at 36 V. It combines GPS-based steering, built-in autopilot modes, and an integrated sonar transducer so you can hold position, maintain a heading, or work along a track while watching what is under the bow.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eControl can stay up front with the wireless foot pedal for quick corrections, and the handheld remote adds point-and-go gesture steering with a sunlight-readable, transflective display that stays usable in open cockpits. When linked wirelessly to a compatible Garmin chartplotter, motor control and route guidance can be managed from the screen, with sonar available from the built-in transducer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis setup is a solid match for anglers running bass boats and multi-species rigs who want hands-on bow control plus GPS holding for wind, current, and spot-to-spot moves on lakes and rivers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e24 V or 36 V operation, rated up to 80 lb thrust at 24 V or 100 lb at 36 V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in autopilot functions including anchor lock, heading hold, and cruise control using integrated GPS and heading sensor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrated sonar transducer supporting CHIRP traditional plus Ultra High-Definition ClearVü and SideVü scanning sonar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWireless foot pedal that reacts quickly and steers with a cable-steer style feel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandheld remote with sunlight-readable, transflective display and point-and-go gesture steering, plus a floating design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWireless integration with compatible Garmin chartplotters for on-screen control and route guidance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrushless motor that runs quietly and helps stretch battery time during long days on the bow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eVariants\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis trolling motor is offered in multiple configurations to match different bow heights and mounting setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe variants listed here differ by length. A longer shaft helps keep the lower unit and transducer in clean water when the bow rides higher or the lake gets choppy, while a shorter shaft can suit lower freeboard and tighter stow clearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e010-02025-00: Length 57 in. This length helps maintain prop and transducer submersion when the bow lifts in chop or when fishing heavier boats.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e010-02024-00: Length 50 in. This length can be a cleaner fit on lower-profile bows and can reduce stow clearance issues around rails, cleats, and trailers.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eWhat’s included\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrolling motor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFoot pedal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandheld remote\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-efficiency propeller\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStabilizer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAssembly and mounting hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDocumentation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eCompatibility and fit\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eForce is a bow-mount motor, so deck space and the stow path are part of the fit check. Confirm the mount can swing and latch without contacting the rub rail, bow light, or railings, and that the head and pull cable have room to move through the full steering range. Shaft length is the main sizing decision, and it should reflect how high your bow sits above the waterline and how much clearance you have when the motor is stowed and strapped down for transport.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eElectrical and system integration\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe motor is built for 24 V or 36 V battery systems. Plan for high-current wiring with marine-grade cable, secure battery connections, and circuit protection appropriate for a trolling motor circuit. The built-in transducer outputs CHIRP traditional sonar plus Ultra High-Definition ClearVü and SideVü scanning, and those sonar views require a compatible sonar-capable display to see returns at the helm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eInstallation and setup\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eDry-fit the bracket on the bow first to confirm swing clearance and stow orientation, then through-bolt into a solid backing surface. Route power leads so they cannot chafe during deploy and stow cycles, and keep wiring clear of the steering head and hinge points. After mounting, pair the foot pedal and remote, then test steering response, anchor lock behavior, and prop direction at the dock before heading out.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eMaintenance and care\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter each day on the water, rinse and wipe down around the mount pivots and prop area and clear any fishing line that could work into moving parts. Recheck mounting fasteners and cable routing periodically, especially after trailering on rough roads, and store the remote and pedal where they will not get crushed or stepped on in transit.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Garmin","offers":[{"title":"57\"","offer_id":52270816526517,"sku":"QBP332713-V1","price":3649.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"50\"","offer_id":52270816559285,"sku":"QBP332713-V2","price":3549.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1306029_qbp332713.webp?v=1771551218","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp332713","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
