Garmin Force® Current Kayak Motors

The Garmin Force® Current is more than just a trolling motor—it’s a high-performance fishing tool designed specifically for the unique needs of kayak anglers. Built by Garmin, a trusted name in marine electronics, this motor combines innovative technology, reliable power, and intuitive control in a compact, kayak-friendly design. Whether you're navigating tight inshore waters, holding position over offshore structure, or simply moving quietly through your local lake, the Force Current delivers the control, speed, and stealth you need to fish more effectively.

Purpose-Built for Kayak Fishing

Unlike traditional trolling motors adapted for kayaks, the Force Current is engineered from the ground up for kayak anglers. It’s compact, lightweight, and rugged—perfectly sized to integrate seamlessly with modern fishing kayaks. Every aspect of the motor is designed to keep you efficient on the water without sacrificing deck space, battery life, or fishability.

Brushless Motor – Quiet, Efficient, and Powerful

At the heart of the Garmin Force Current is a brushless motor, which provides impressive thrust with minimal noise and superior efficiency. The quiet operation ensures you won’t spook fish in shallow or pressured waters, while the energy-saving design helps extend battery life for longer days on the water. This brushless system also offers long-term reliability with reduced maintenance needs, giving you peace of mind trip after trip.

Wireless Control and GPS Anchor Lock

One of the standout features of the Force Current is its wireless control system. It comes with a low-profile wireless remote and is compatible with Garmin chartplotters, allowing for integrated motor control right from your display. The GPS-powered anchor lock keeps your kayak locked in position—without drifting—even in current or wind. This hands-free feature is perfect for working structure, drop-offs, or shallow flats, letting you focus on casting instead of correcting your boat position.

Seamless Power-Pole Integration

For anglers who rely on shallow water anchors, the Force Current offers built-in integration with Power-Pole systems. This allows for advanced boat control and positioning options that traditional trolling motors can’t offer. Use your motor and anchor in tandem to maximize stability and accuracy in shallow or windy conditions.

Built for Fresh and Saltwater Use

The Force Current is designed to handle the harsh environments of both fresh and saltwater fishing. Corrosion-resistant materials and sealed components mean you can confidently explore inshore flats, tidal creeks, or even brackish estuaries. From bass in freshwater lakes to redfish on the coast, this motor is ready to follow your kayak wherever your fishing takes you.

Easy Mounting and Versatile Compatibility

Garmin made installation straightforward, with a mount designed to fit a wide range of fishing kayaks. Whether you're rigging a Hobie, Old Town, Native, or another popular brand, the Force Current offers a clean fit with minimal modification required. The included mounting hardware, cable management solutions, and power options make it easy to get on the water quickly and cleanly.

Garmin Reliability Meets Angler Innovation

Garmin has long been a leader in marine electronics, and the Force Current brings their experience into the growing world of kayak fishing. With seamless connectivity to your Garmin electronics, reliable GPS performance, and a powerful brushless drive, it’s a complete trolling motor system you can trust to perform when it matters most.
