[QUOTE="bassboy1, post: 55053, member: 55"] Minn Kota all the way. I can honestly say, that with the way I treat trolling motors, the stainless shaft wouldn't have held up to some of the crap I put it through. Plus, on MKs, the skeg is in the front of the motor, whereas it is on the back of the Motorguide. Thereby, on MK's, you mount your transducer on the back of the motor, where it is protected by the skeg, but on the motorguide, it is mounted in front of the skeg. The flex shaft on the MK is a lifesaver too. I also wouldn't own a trolling motor without the digital Maximizer. Course, the Edge doesn't have that, so that is a moot point for you. MK customer service is excellent too. The only place I can see ever having a Motorguide would be as a transom mount motor just to gain thrust on electric only waters, but the bow one would still be a MK. [/QUOTE]
