This all-in-one bundle positions the Force® Kraken as the most complete solution on the market for freshwater anglers requiring full integration between propulsion, sonar, and navigation.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eA trolling motor designed for system integration\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    The \u003cstrong\u003eForce® Kraken\u003c\/strong\u003e replaces the first-generation Force® Trolling Motor, retaining its base architecture while delivering more powerful propulsion and extended compatibility with the Garmin ecosystem. The \u003cstrong\u003eGT56UHD-TR transducer integrated into the motor housing\u003c\/strong\u003e is a dual-beam high-definition (UHD) CHIRP-compatible transducer capable of delivering precise sonar images directly from the bow of the boat — where the motor is deployed. This setup eliminates interference from hull-mounted transducers and provides real-time water column readings under the bow without visible external cabling. The transducer cable runs inside the shaft, protected from impacts and wear. The GT56UHD-TR transducer is compatible with Garmin chartplotters equipped with CHIRP sonar ports (ECHOMAP™ UHD, GPSMAP® series, etc.).\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eRange comparison and positioning\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    The \u003cstrong\u003eForce® Kraken 63\"\u003c\/strong\u003e differs from the standard Force® Trolling Motor with increased thrust power and reinforced mechanical design, featuring a quick-release deployment mechanism and an electric servo-steering system — unlike manual-steering motors such as the Minn Kota Terrova or MotorGuide Xi5. Compared to the Minn Kota Ulterra, the Force® Kraken offers native integration with Garmin chartplotters via NMEA 2000 network and the \u003cstrong\u003eActiveCaptain®\u003c\/strong\u003e app, enabling automatic heading control and route management from the chartplotter. The 63\" version suits mid-sized boats (up to approximately 7.5 m depending on boat weight), while Garmin also offers 75\" and 90\" versions for heavier vessels. The kit includes the wireless remote control and GT56UHD-TR transducer, eliminating the need for separate purchases of these essential accessories.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eInstallation and LiveScope™ compatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    The \u003cstrong\u003eForce® Kraken\u003c\/strong\u003e is designed to accommodate an optional LiveScope™ mount (sold separately), allowing installation of an LVS32, LVS34, or LVS62 transducer directly on the motor shaft. Two mounting templates are available depending on the motor generation (5\/16\" or 1\/4\" bolts), and a quick-release mounting plate kit (sold separately) is available to simplify deck installation\/removal. Installation requires drilling the deck (9 mm bit) and access to the underside for nut installation — a task for an experienced installer. Internal wiring is fully managed via the junction box located in the top cap of the shaft.","brand":"Garmin","offers":[{"title":"63 inches","offer_id":55860343865684,"sku":"010-02573-00","price":2666.68,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0988\/3274\/4788\/files\/main_95d340c5-c0e6-4de1-9b16-1ea7db5fc57e.jpg?v=1779192057","url":"https:\/\/skysat.fr\/en-gb\/products\/garmin-force-kraken-63-electric-motor-gt56uhd-tr-transducer-remote-control","provider":"Skysat","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
