Anyone want to buy a 1 year old Terrova???
My only question is, is the integrated UHD ducer upgradeable over time? Looks pretty sweet though.

Ring fry, does this motor "follow the contour" like HB?Originally Posted by ring fry
As of yet, no. I don't know if it will or not. It does have a heading lock where you can set it on 'cruise control' at a designated heading.

The transducer can be removed and replaced.

Ouch $3100. Was waiting on this one to upgrade the fortrex, but not sure with that pricing.
Cool....nice looking TM.....will have to see what's going-on on my end come end of the year.....may have to sell an Ultrex to get this one.

is the GT54UHD the integrated transducer?
I need to sell a couple of kids to be able to afford the FORCE...
50" and 57"........is that just the shaft length, or does it include the head too? Seems pretty long.
That 50 mark is perfect 45 is to short and 54 is too long
Not gonna work for me at 57” I going to stick with my 70” Ulterra.
On its surface I expected more from Garmin. Although I am sure it is well built it is bulky. Nothing about this makes it a must buy right off the bat especially considering the price. I expected that they would have auto stow and deploy and the ability to stow manually without hassle unlike the ulterra. This is strictly my opinion but auto stow and deploy is the future and I figured Garmin would knock that out of the park. Im sure this is going to be a well build less buggy unit than others but in my opinion its not a game changer or a must have. Its nice that they integrated UHD into the head but I cant imagine image quality will be amazing with the head constantly turning and it being in the part of the boat that moves the most.
I agree - brushless motors are not a "new" technology, so for an entry point ~$800 over the Ultrex (80/45 non-link), I would expect more features... ie. auto-deploy (don't even need auto stow) - not less (no contour follow.. at a price that is still ~$400 more than the link version of the 80/45 Ultrex). Interesting.... we'll see how all of this shakes out. At any rate, it keeps me from being in a hurry and feeling like I have to shell out $2500.
Strange that the (2) new trolling motors - which are completely new product categories for both companies - have come out at exactly the same price point at the same time. .... hmmm.....
- hopefully Motorguide has not been in on those conversations (that never took place), and will come out with a product and price that will kill all others. hahaha... that would just take the cake.

Anyone know if you can mark a spot on livescope and this will go to it and anchor?
So now that you can talk about it, How is Livescope handled with it? I really would have thought that garmin would have had a plan on separating transducer rotation from shaft rotation.

At that price, the FORCE is not with me.
Well, I've had LiveScope on a trolling motor shaft since before the beginning. I still have no reason to move it off the TM. Obviously when you are in anchor mode the shaft turns making it move almost continuously. All I do is take it off anchor, look where I want to and put it back on anchor if I want to stay there. Takes only a second or two.
