Whether you're running a fully integrated Garmin chartplotter system or just getting started with a smartwatch controller, the Force Current grows with your setup. Built to handle saltwater, freshwater, weeds, current, and wind, this is a motor you'll put in the water season after season and trust every time. For the kayak angler who is serious about their craft, the Garmin Force Current is the clear choice.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"custom-product-faq\"\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Specifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003ctable border=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePart Number\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e010-02864-10\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eColor\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMount Style\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4-hole tilt mount\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMounting Location\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStern\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMax Thrust\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e50 lbs (ISO13342) at 24V \/ 30 lbs (ISO13342) at 12V - high efficiency propeller\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eVoltage\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12V or 24V\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eShaft Length (mount to top of drive motor)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16.6\" (max) \/ 11.4\" (min)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eVariable Speed Control\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes (20 steps)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBuilt-in GPS\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes (dual frequency GPS)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBuilt-in Heading Sensor\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eElectric Steering\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWater Rating\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIPX7\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWarranty\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3-year limited; lifetime on shaft\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWireless Remote Display Size\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.2\" (30.2 mm) diameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWireless Remote Display Resolution\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e240 x 240 pixels\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWireless Remote Display Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColor, sunlight-visible, transflective MIP\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWireless Remote Battery Life\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e43 weeks typical (backlight at low)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eRemote Water Rating\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIPX7; floats\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAutopilot Features\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRoute following, Anchor Lock, Smart Anchor Lock, Anchor Lock Jog, Heading Hold, Cruise Control, Gesture steering\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFoot Pedal Power\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 AA batteries (approx. 1 full season)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFoot Pedal Water Rating\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIPX7\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFoot Pedal Communication\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWireless\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"custom-product-faq\"\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWhat battery do I need to power the Force Current?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-content\"\u003eThe Force Current runs on either 12V or 24V systems. At 12V it delivers up to 30 lbs of thrust, and at 24V it delivers up to 50 lbs. Garmin recommends using a deep-cycle marine battery. The exact battery capacity you'll need depends on your typical fishing duration and conditions - a 24V lithium or AGM battery is the most popular choice for all-day kayak trips.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eDo I need a Garmin chartplotter to use this motor?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-content\"\u003eNo - the Force Current works completely standalone with the included wireless floating remote for full throttle, steering, and autopilot control.

You can also pair a compatible Garmin smartwatch for wrist-based control without a chartplotter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWhat is Anchor Lock and how well does it work?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-content\"\u003eAnchor Lock is Garmin's GPS-based virtual anchor system that uses dual-frequency multi-band GPS to hold your kayak in a precise spot on the water without dropping a physical anchor. It continuously adjusts motor thrust and direction to counteract wind and current drift. The multi-band GPS in the Force Current is Garmin's most accurate implementation, offering tighter positioning than standard single-band GPS systems - making it highly effective even in moderate wind and current conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eIs the motor compatible with my kayak?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-content\"\u003eThe Force Current uses an industry-standard 4-hole tilt mount pattern, which is compatible with a wide range of kayaks from brands like Hobie, Old Town, Native, Jackson, and many others.

If you frequently cast and retrieve or work lures with both hands, the foot pedals are a game-changer - they let you control speed and steering without ever setting the rod down. If you primarily troll, drift-fish, or prefer a simpler setup, the included wireless handheld remote handles all the same functions and is perfectly capable on its own. The pedals can also be added later as an accessory if you want to try the motor first.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWhat is the Man Overboard (MOB) tag and how does it work?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-content\"\u003eThe included black MOB tag is a wireless device you wear on your body while on the water. If you fall overboard and the tag gets separated from the motor beyond a set distance, the motor automatically cuts power.
