Garmin has announced two new products for August and July of 2024. These include an exciting new Garmin Panoptix Ice Fishing Bundle and a new shaft length in the Garmin Force Kraken Trolling Motor. We’re excited to use these new products as well know they’ll be real fish catchers. We’ve included the official new product descriptions below.
Garmin Panoptix PS22-IF Ice Fishing Bundle – MRP $1999.99, availability in August 2024
Hole hop nonstop with the ultraportable Garmin Panoptix™ PS22-IF Ice Fishing Bundle, a live sonar solution optimized for ice fishing. Designed specifically for hard water anglers, the PS22-IF transducer features an industry-first pole-free transducer system with a new bracket and rotator that eliminates the need for a pole mount but maintains the ability to easily make adjustments for depth, direction and sonar mode. To help anglers determine where to drill the next hole, the PS22-IF bundle includes an ECHOMAP™UHD2 73sv touchscreen combo with keyed assist and offers two types of Panoptix sonar – LiveVü Forward and LiveVü Down – that shows live sonar images up to 100 feet in any direction below the ice.
Garmin Force Kraken 48” Trolling Motor – MRP $3599.99 (black); $3799.99 (white), availability July 2024
Harness the power of the Force Kraken trolling motor, now available with a 48” shaft length. Once you’ve found the spot, stay put with our most precise anchor lock technology. LiveScope™ live sonar is easy to add, thanks to the ability to run the cable through the trolling motor shaft. Select models include a GT56 integrated transducer for best-in-class CHIRP traditional, ClearVü and SideVü sonars. The sturdy pivot-style mount frees up space on the deck, and the all-new 48’’ shaft is perfect for boats with a smaller freeboard. Use the chartplotter to draw a route, and wirelessly let the trolling motor automatically navigate the route while you fish. The included remote makes speed and heading adjustments easy from anywhere on the boat. Connect your compatible Garmin smartwatch to control steering, anchor lock and more from your wrist. Plus, it’s saltwater-rated for advanced corrosion protection.
