Damage Free Guarantee

Here at Eco Fishing Shop we partner with the top of the line freight carriers in the country to ensure that your kayaks arrive fast and safely. 

We have secured a new partnership with a white glove delivery service that will ensure ZERO Damaged Kayaks. You will no longer be required to sign and inspect your kayak. But do not worry, this carrier has a 99.97% damage-free rate and they have assured us of this. In the rare occasion damage has been detected, Eco Fishing Shop will take care of the replacement as long as the damage is reported within 2 hours of delivery and pictures of the damage are submitted via email.

If you choose to replace a kayak with minor cosmetic damage instead, then you will be charged a 20% restocking fee.  

The Eco Fishing Shop definition of damage is when the kayak is delivered in a condition that compromises the hull and is confirmed with the vendor that would void the warranty.

Frequently Asked Questions About the Old Town Ocean Kayak Malibu ePDL+ 120

Who is the Old Town Ocean Kayak Malibu ePDL+ 120 best suited to?

The Old Town Ocean Kayak Malibu ePDL+ 120 suits paddlers who want power-assisted pedaling on the recreational Malibu hull rather than a full fishing platform.

It is 12 ft long, 34.5 in wide and 126 lb assembled, with a 36V lithium battery and charger supplied.

The figure to check before anything else is usable capacity, which is 223 lb. Weigh yourself and your gear against it before you commit.

How much weight can the Old Town Ocean Kayak Malibu ePDL+ 120 carry?

The Old Town Ocean Kayak Malibu ePDL+ 120 is rated at 349 lb total and 223 lb usable.

Usable capacity is what remains for you, gear and a dog once the 126 lb assembled boat is deducted. The assembled figure already includes the 31 lb drive console, the 6 lb seat and the battery, so do not subtract those a second time.

At 223 lb this is a single-person boat with modest gear, not a loaded fishing rig.

What does the ePDL+ drive on the Old Town Ocean Kayak Malibu ePDL+ 120 do?

The ePDL+ drive on the Old Town Ocean Kayak Malibu ePDL+ 120 is a pedal drive with an electric motor built into it, giving three ways to move.

You can pedal it manually with no power at all, add one of five levels of power assist while you pedal, or engage cruise control and stop pedaling entirely.

Reverse is available in manual pedal mode. A backlit display shows the mode and the battery state.

What battery does the Old Town Ocean Kayak Malibu ePDL+ 120 use and how long does it run?

The Old Town Ocean Kayak Malibu ePDL+ 120 is supplied with a 36V 20Ah lithium-ion battery and its charger, and the battery weighs about 8.5 lb.

Published test results on a new, fully charged battery in flat water with a moderate load are 46 hours in Cruise 1, 23 hours in Cruise 3 and 3 hours in Cruise 5. The figures step down as the cruise setting rises, because a higher setting draws more power.

Those are test conditions, not a promise of what you will see. Wind, chop, load and how much you pedal all change it. Full details are on the Old Town ePDL+ support page.

Can the Old Town Ocean Kayak Malibu ePDL+ 120 still be pedaled if the battery is flat?

Yes, the Old Town Ocean Kayak Malibu ePDL+ 120 pedals manually with no power at all, which is the drive's normal unpowered mode rather than a limp-home workaround.

You lose the assist and cruise control, but the mechanical pedal drive keeps working exactly as a standard PDL Drive does.

Carrying a paddle is still sensible for shallows and weed, where the drive has to come up regardless of charge.

What registration requirements apply to the Old Town Ocean Kayak Malibu ePDL+ 120?

The Old Town Ocean Kayak Malibu ePDL+ 120 may require registration because it has motorized propulsion.

Its ePDL+ drive is an electric motor, so it is treated differently from a paddle kayak or a mechanical pedal kayak. Registration, numbering, education, equipment and operating requirements vary by state and can change.

Check the current rules with the boating authority for every state where the kayak will be operated. The U.S. Coast Guard state boating law directory lists them.

Can the Old Town Ocean Kayak Malibu ePDL+ 120 be used in saltwater?

Yes, the Old Town Ocean Kayak Malibu ePDL+ 120 is built for salt as well as fresh water, and its power-assisted drive is a saltwater-ready design.

Rinse the hull, the drive and the propeller with fresh water at the end of every salt trip, and work the drive through its range while you rinse.

Keep the hose off the battery terminals and the display, dry the connections, and store the battery indoors.

How is the Old Town Ocean Kayak Malibu ePDL+ 120 transported and stored?

The Old Town Ocean Kayak Malibu ePDL+ 120 weighs 126 lb assembled, and the 31 lb drive console, 6 lb seat and battery all lift out before you move it.

Roof transport is decided by the lowest of your vehicle roof rating, crossbar rating and rack rating, so confirm all three rather than working from the boat weight alone.

Practical loading also depends on your vehicle height and your own lifting ability. A cart or trailer avoids the question.

What warranty applies to the Old Town Ocean Kayak Malibu ePDL+ 120?

Coverage on the Old Town Ocean Kayak Malibu ePDL+ 120 is split by component and no single period covers the whole boat.

The hull and deck carry limited lifetime coverage for the original retail purchaser. The ePDL+ is an electric drive system, so the two-year term applies rather than the five-year mechanical PDL Drive period. The supplied Amped Outdoors battery has its own two-year term, administered by Amped Outdoors. Accessories are covered for one year.

Claims begin with Old Town or the relevant component manufacturer. We can help identify the right support path, but coverage is decided under the Old Town warranty terms.

How should the Old Town Ocean Kayak Malibu ePDL+ 120 be looked after?

Rinse the Old Town Ocean Kayak Malibu ePDL+ 120 and its drive after every trip, and clear the propeller of line and weed before you put it away.

Charge the battery with the supplied 36V charger and store it indoors between 40°F and 80°F rather than leaving it in the hull through a cold snap or a hot car.

Keep the hull shaded and evenly supported, because sunlight is what ages polyethylene.
