Garmin Marine Showcases New Marine Technology at Southampton Boat Show 2025

Garmin Marine is charting the course to the Southampton Boat Show 2025 with a line-up of its latest marine technologies. From advanced chartplotters to powerful trolling motors and innovative marine audio, the company’s stand (H410, New Wave Hall) offers visitors an interactive look at products built to enhance life on the water.

The Force® Current, a first-of-its-kind kayak trolling motor, introduces hands-free wireless throttle and steering control. Delivering 50 pounds of thrust, it is designed for all-day use in both saltwater and freshwater environments. Alongside it, Garmin will also display the largest Force Kraken, a 110-inch trolling motor created for coastal boats such as large centre consoles.

Visitors can experience the GPSMAP 1523xsv, a 15-inch ultrawide premium display. Its edge-to-edge glass design allows a dual-screen effect without needing two separate units, simplifyingv helm layout while offering built-in mapping and sonar. Also debuting is the ECHOMAP Ultra 2, built for inland and nearshore anglers who demand a sharp display, premium mapping, and outstanding sonar capability.

Launched earlier this year, the Fusion Apollo RA800 stereo brings new design and digital clarity to marine audio. With a built-in DAB tuner and stereo grouping, boaters can share sources across different zones, creating a premium onboard sound experience.

For wearable innovation, Garmin presents the quatix 8, its most advanced nautical smartwatch to date. Built to U.S. military standards for durability, it features an ambient light sensor for clear viewing in direct sunlight, a built-in LED flashlight with safety modes, and a red night-vision light.

Garmin invites visitors to discover these innovations at stand H410 during the Southampton Boat Show, 19–28 September 2025.
