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 the damage is cosmetic and/or able to be repaired, such as dents or scratches, EFS will provide a repair kit. 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 Sportsman BigWater PDL 132

Who is the Old Town Sportsman BigWater PDL 132 best suited to?

The Old Town Sportsman BigWater PDL 132 suits anglers who pedal open water, bays and larger rivers and want a long hull that holds its line in chop.

It is 13 ft 2 in long, 36 in wide and 122 lb assembled, and it carries 378 lb of angler and gear.

Longer hulls generally hold a line better over distance and turn less sharply, though load, wind and current all affect how any hull behaves.

How much weight can the Old Town Sportsman BigWater PDL 132 carry?

The Old Town Sportsman BigWater PDL 132 is rated at 500 lb total and 378 lb usable.

Usable capacity is the total minus the 122 lb assembled boat, which already comprises the 95 lb hull, the 21 lb pedal console and the 6 lb seat.

It carries 6 lb less usable load than the shorter PDL 120 despite being 14 in longer, because the drive console and hull are heavier.

How does the PDL Drive on the Old Town Sportsman BigWater PDL 132 work?

The Old Town Sportsman BigWater PDL 132 uses the PDL Drive, a leg-powered propeller unit with instant forward and reverse and no gears to change.

The pedal console weighs 21 lb and lifts out of its well by hand.

An ePDL+ RetroFit is offered for this model. It runs on its own 36V 6.5Ah battery with its own published runtimes, which are not the figures quoted for the factory ePDL+ kayaks.

Can the drive be removed from the Old Town Sportsman BigWater PDL 132 for shallow water?

Yes, the 21 lb pedal console on the Old Town Sportsman BigWater PDL 132 lifts out of its well for shallow water, weed and loading.

No minimum operating depth is published for this model, so we will not state one. Judge it on the water and pull the drive before the prop can touch bottom.

On a hull this long, plan the exit from skinny water before you pedal into it.

Can the Old Town Sportsman BigWater PDL 132 be paddled as well as pedaled?

Yes, and a paddle belongs aboard the Old Town Sportsman BigWater PDL 132 on every trip.

It is how you cross the shallows and weed where the drive has to come up, and it is your backup if the propeller fouls.

No paddle or life jacket is included with the kayak. A 13 ft hull with a 36 in beam generally wants a longer kayak paddle than a compact fishing kayak.

Can the Old Town Sportsman BigWater PDL 132 be used in saltwater?

Yes, the Old Town Sportsman BigWater PDL 132 is well suited to inshore salt water, and the PDL Drive is a saltwater-ready design.

Rinse the hull, the drive and the propeller with fresh water at the end of every salt trip, working the drive through its range as you go.

Dry everything before storage, and check any hardware you have added for early signs of corrosion.

How is the Old Town Sportsman BigWater PDL 132 transported and stored?

Remove the 21 lb pedal console and 6 lb seat from the Old Town Sportsman BigWater PDL 132, leaving a 95 lb hull from 122 lb assembled.

Roof capability is set by the lowest of your vehicle roof rating, crossbar rating and rack rating, and at 13 ft 2 in bar spacing matters too. A kayak cart may help at the water.

Store it shaded and evenly supported.

What warranty applies to the Old Town Sportsman BigWater PDL 132?

Coverage on the Old Town Sportsman BigWater PDL 132 is split by component and the periods are different.

The hull and deck carry limited lifetime coverage for the original retail purchaser. The PDL Drive is covered for five years. Accessories such as paddles and life jackets are covered for one year, and coverage does not pass to a second owner.

Claims begin with Old Town or the applicable component manufacturer, under the Old Town warranty terms.

How should the Old Town Sportsman BigWater PDL 132 be looked after?

Rinse the Old Town Sportsman BigWater PDL 132 and its drive after every trip and clear the propeller of line and weed.

A long hull is more likely to be stored on its side against a wall, so make sure it is supported at several points rather than resting on one.

Keep it shaded, because ultraviolet light is what ages polyethylene fastest.
