Garmin Force TM

anyone have experience with one of these? I would appreciate any and all input good or bad
Thanks,
Paul

I’m looking at these too.

Absolutely love mine !
Quieter than anything I’ve had in the past very easy to stow/deploy Spot lock is amazing!
It don’t drain the batteries like others I have used in the past !

Love mine. Switched from a terrova. It's fast, moves my 19' bass boat almost 4 mph. Foot pedal it totally wireless. Integrates with my Garmin units. I used to use the remote mostly with the terrova now I mostly use the Garmin unit and foot pedal. Stow and deploy it easy.

What I don't like is when plotting a course for trolling it makes a weird dogleg toward the end for some reason. I don't know why it started doing this but it's annoying. That's the only problem that I've had with it so far.

Thanks for the feedback. Couple questions:
1- how much of a delay is there in the motor responding to the foot pedal with the wireless connection.
2- how loud is the above water noise made by the unit turning left and right ? The Ultrex is pretty loud

I have fished a couple times with a guide that has one. We pulled crankbaits with it last summer. I have never used one buy I will say it is the quietest trolling motor I have been around. If I was looking to buy one I would definitely have to check into one.
