The ETA listed on the product page indicates the estimated time frame that the item will start its shipping process from our warehouse. Once the shipping process has begun, typically orders take 4-8 business days to arrive at the customer. (Delivery time may vary based on location)

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 PDL 120

Who is the Old Town Sportsman PDL 120 best suited to?

The Old Town Sportsman PDL 120 suits anglers who want a pedal fishing kayak that covers open water efficiently rather than one built for tight creeks.

It is 12 ft long, 36 in wide and 116 lb assembled, carrying 384 lb of angler and gear.

The extra 18 in over the PDL 106 comes with 41 lb more usable capacity, at the cost of 9 lb more boat to move.

How much weight can the Old Town Sportsman PDL 120 carry?

The Old Town Sportsman PDL 120 is rated at 500 lb total and 384 lb usable.

Usable capacity is the total minus the 116 lb assembled boat, which already includes the 91 lb hull, the 19 lb pedal console and the 6 lb seat.

Plan a full day's tackle, a battery for electronics and a crate against 384 lb rather than against the total figure.

How does the PDL Drive on the Old Town Sportsman PDL 120 work?

The Old Town Sportsman PDL 120 is driven by the PDL Drive, a leg-powered propeller unit with instant forward and reverse and nothing to shift.

It is mechanical throughout, so there is no battery, and the 19 lb console lifts out of its well in seconds.

This model also accepts the ePDL+ RetroFit, which adds power assist using its own 36V 6.5Ah battery and its own published runtimes. See our pedal-drive comparison guide for how the systems compare.

Can the drive be removed from the Old Town Sportsman PDL 120 for shallow water?

Yes, the 19 lb pedal console on the Old Town Sportsman PDL 120 lifts straight out of its well, which is how you handle shallows, weed and loading.

No minimum operating depth is published for this model, so we will not state one. Watch the water and pull the drive before the propeller can strike bottom.

Check the prop for line and weed before the drive goes back in.

Can the Old Town Sportsman PDL 120 be paddled as well as pedaled?

Yes, and a paddle belongs aboard the Old Town Sportsman PDL 120 on every trip.

It is what moves you through 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 supplied with the kayak.

Size a kayak paddle against the 36 in beam and your own height rather than buying the cheapest one.

Can the Old Town Sportsman PDL 120 be used in saltwater?

Yes, the Old Town Sportsman PDL 120 can be fished in saltwater, and the PDL Drive is a saltwater-ready design.

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

Dry it before storage, and pay attention to any track hardware or electronics fittings you have added yourself.

How is the Old Town Sportsman PDL 120 transported and stored?

Remove the 19 lb pedal console and the 6 lb seat from the Old Town Sportsman PDL 120 before moving it, which leaves a 91 lb hull from 116 lb assembled.

Roof capability is set by the lowest of your vehicle roof rating, crossbar rating and rack rating, and by what you can lift to that height.

A cart or trailer removes the lift entirely. Store the boat shaded and evenly supported.

What warranty applies to the Old Town Sportsman PDL 120?

Coverage on the Old Town Sportsman PDL 120 is divided by component and no single term covers the whole kayak.

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 is not transferable.

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

How should the Old Town Sportsman PDL 120 be looked after?

Hose the Old Town Sportsman PDL 120 and its drive after every trip, and inspect the propeller, rudder, cables and metal fittings, especially after saltwater exposure.

Line and weed around the propeller are easy to miss and simple to clear at the ramp.

Store the hull shaded and supported evenly along its length.
