Every angler who has ever travelled long distances by boat appreciates electric motors.
Unlike internal combustion engines, electric motors are now allowed on (almost) every body of water.
The advantages are obvious:
Electric drives are maintenance-free, you can move around almost silently, you don't have to handle fuel and they are gentle on the water. With a decent battery, you can also cover impressive distances.
Today we would like to introduce you to two models from the manufacturer Watersnake, which convince with their reliability and their unique price-performance ratio.
On the one hand, the Watersnake ASP T18, probably the handiest motor in the world:
Designed for smaller inflatable boats, belly boats and kayaks, the ASP T18 is both simple and effective.
For weight reasons, a complicated control system has been dispensed with. A toggle switch switches the motor into forward and reverse gear, another one offers two speed levels each.
This results in 4 steps, with which the thrust of 18lbs can be regulated.
The ASP T18 is currently available for only 64,95€. Due to its dimensions and price, the T18 is also ideal as an emergency engine on larger boats.
For larger boats where more thrust is needed, we recommend the Watersnake Tracer with 34lbs.
Equipped with 5 forward and 2 reverse gears, precise speed adjustment is possible. The motor is easy to handle with a weight of 8.2kg and with a shaft length of 90cm it is also suitable for boats with higher sides.
The Tracer FWT34 is currently priced at 99.95€, which is very affordable compared to similar models.
We give it a clear buy recommendation! We have already used the motors and are thrilled with both the reliability and the low power consumption!
