Keep Your Garmin Force Kraken Remote Secure On Board: A Mounting Guide

Keep Your Garmin Force Kraken Remote Secure On Board: A Mounting Guide

If you run a Garmin Force Kraken electric trolling motor, you already know how often that wireless remote ends up in a pocket, on the gunwale, or somewhere you last saw it "just a sec ago." On a moving boat, especially with wash, wind, and wet hands, a loose remote is easy to misplace and slow to find when you need spot-lock or a quick heading change.

This guide covers a simple fix: a purpose-built Garmin Force Kraken remote holder mount from FNQI-3D, designed to keep the remote secure, accessible, and in one known spot.

Who this is for

This holder suits Aussie boaties who:

  • Run a Garmin Force Kraken (or compatible Garmin Kraken trolling motor remote)
  • Want the remote within reach at the console, casting deck, or another high-use spot
  • Prefer a dedicated mount over leaving the remote in a bag, cup holder, or loose on the dash
  • Want something Australian designed and manufactured, not a generic phone cradle

Important: Confirm your remote model matches before ordering. The FNQI-3D product page is aimed at the Garmin Kraken remote. If you're unsure, check the listing or contact FNQI-3D before you buy.

Fitment / install checklist

  1. Confirm remote fit — Check that your remote is the Garmin Kraken / Force Kraken remote this holder is designed for.
  2. Choose colour — Black or white to match console, dash, or deck trim.
  3. Pick the home spot — Somewhere you can grab the remote quickly. Keep clear of throttle travel and hatch lids.
  4. Dry-fit first — Seat the remote and hold the assembly in place. Check one-hand reach and that nothing fouls cables or hatches.
  5. Check the mounting surface — Flat, solid panel preferred. Avoid thin trim that will flex when fastened.
  6. Plan fasteners and seal — Mounting hardware is not included unless stated on the product page. Use marine-appropriate fasteners and sealant for your surface.
  7. Mount, then re-check access — Confirm it seats firmly and comes free cleanly with wet hands.
  8. Sea trial — On the next trip, confirm it doesn't rattle loose in chop.
