    Garmin Force with Panoptix

    Getting ready to upgrade trolling motor and sonar on my Z18. Reallly like the looks and videos on the force. Using minnkota and humminbird now. So, I will need the Force troll motor and a compatible garmin sonar unit and the panoptix kit? @ $7,300? is that correct?

    You don't have to have the Force to run Livescope. But if you're getting ready to upgrade all, you might as well. Force $3100
    Livescope $1500
    $4600
    Then it depends on what chartplotter you want. Ultra 126 $2800, Ultra 106 $2000, or the GPSmap series.

    Depends on which unit and which Panoptix/Livescope.
    Looks like you are pricing the TM+Ultra 126 + LVS32 system.
    Prices seem about the same everywhere for the TM and LVS32 system but I'm seeing a variety of pricing of the Ultras.

    I'd give Brian a call

    I'm using the echomap plus Garmin 73sv chartplotter/sonar with transducer which costs $749.99 & links to the new force trolling motor. The 73sv chartplotter/sonar can be purchased without a transducer where you utilize the built in HD transducer with the trolling motor for $599.99.

    Been running the Force and panoptix since May. Awesome motor, quiet, powerful and easy to use. One con, Prop is very delicate.

    I'll second all of this.
