The Force Pro runs on 24 V or 36 V and uses a scissor-style mount with dual gas springs to help with lifting. It comes with a foot pedal, a wireless remote and both high efficiency and weedless props, and it supports Anchor Lock, Heading Hold, route following and cruise control. Shaft lengths are 50 or 57 in.

Specs at a glance

  • Max thrust: 100 lbs at 36 V, 80 lbs at 24 V
  • Voltage: 24 V or 36 V
  • Mount: bow, scissor style with dual gas spring lift assist
  • Shaft lengths: 50 or 57 in
  • Sonar: built-in, CHIRP traditional plus ClearVü and SideVü
  • Water rating: IPX7 above-water components
  • Included: motor, foot pedal, remote, high efficiency and weedless props, stabilizer, mounting hardware

Good to know

  • Pick the 50 or 57 in shaft based on your bow height, so the prop and transducer sit deep enough in the water.
  • With sonar built into the motor, plan your chartplotter around it rather than buying a separate transducer.

KayakDIY take: This is a big-boat bow mount, so for a kayak I’d look at something lighter. For kayak-sized options, see my best kayak motors guide.
