Watersnake trolling motors I've heard of them never used one nor have any friends that have.
By no means am I an expert on trolling motors but from what I've accrued is the shaft should be flexible or composite material. That way if it hits something the shaft flexes and bounces back
The Watersnake ASP & Tracer use steel shaft, I don't know what happens when you hit something with a steel shaft maybe the more experienced folks can chime in.
The Watersnake Venom uses a Composite shaft but depending on were you buy it looks like the price is more than Motorguide or Endura.
Just FYI the Endura C2 & MAxx both come with a composite shaft.
