Abstract: A covering created to be attached to an electric trolling motor propulsion unit and/or shaft in order to absorb the sounds and vibrations created during the use of the trolling motor. The Invention is created from a material, such as rubber or synthetic rubber or of another material with sound dampening qualities, which dampens and/or absorbs sound, force and/or vibrations. The preferred embodiment of the Invention is a customized rubber or synthetic rubber covering that is applied flush to a portion of a trolling motor propulsion unit and/or shaft thereby reducing the vibrations distributed into the water into which the trolling motor is submerged and thus minimizing aquatic disturbance. Additional purposes of this method and apparatus is to both protect the trolling motor from damage caused by external trauma or blows and to dampen sounds and vibrations created from such external trauma.
