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.

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 PRO

Who is the Sportsman PDL 120 PRO best suited to?

Anglers who want the PDL drive in the PRO-outfitted hull, with the highest capacity in the solo PDL group at 565 lb total and 420 lb usable.

It suits lakes, reservoirs, slower rivers and protected inshore water, and it is the pick if you rig heavily. The PDL drive is described as saltwater-ready.

Conditions decide what this boat can do far more than the numbers do. Wind, current, chop, cold water and your own fitness all matter, so build up from easy days rather than starting at the limit.

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

Total capacity is 565 lb and usable capacity is 420 lb. Those are different numbers and the second one is the one that matters to you.

Total capacity includes the assembled kayak itself. Usable capacity is what is left for people, gear, pets and any equipment you add, after the 131 lb assembled weight is accounted for. Never treat the total figure as the amount you can load aboard.

The hull on its own weighs 106 lb; the 131 lb figure is the kayak assembled with the drive and seat fitted.

Aim comfortably under the usable number. A heavily loaded hull sits deeper, turns lazily and gives you less room for error when the wind gets up.

How does the PDL drive work?

It is a propeller drive worked with your legs, and it gives you forward and instant reverse without shifting or fiddling — you pedal backwards and the boat goes backwards.

The point of it is that your hands stay free. You can hold position along a bank, back off a snag or reposition on a fish without putting the rod down, which is difficult to appreciate until you have fished a day without a paddle in the way.

The drive is mechanical. There is no battery, nothing to charge and nothing to run flat.

Can I take the drive out, and how shallow can I go?

Yes. The drive lifts out of its well, which is how you handle shallow water, weed and loading. Pull it before you drag over anything and you will not be replacing parts.

No minimum operating depth is published for this model, so we are not going to state one. Judge it on the water: if the propeller is close to touching, pull the drive and paddle through.

Rinse the drive after every trip and check the propeller for line and weed. Most drive problems start as something wrapped around the prop that nobody looked at.

Can I paddle it as well as pedal it?

Yes, and you should carry a paddle on every trip. Pedal kayaks get used in shallows, around timber and in weed, and all three are situations where the drive comes up and the paddle goes to work.

A paddle is also your backup if the drive fouls. That is not a common event, but it is a bad one to meet without a paddle aboard.

A paddle is not included with the kayak. Neither is a PFD, and you need one aboard for every person on every trip. If you tell us how tall you are and how wide the boat is, we can point you at a sensible paddle length rather than guessing at the counter.

Can I use it in saltwater?

The PDL drive is described as saltwater-ready, and that description applies to the PDL drive rather than being a blanket rating for every component.

Rinse the whole boat, and the drive in particular, with fresh water at the end of every saltwater trip. Salt corrodes as it dries rather than while you are fishing, so the hose is the single most effective thing you can do. Work the drive through its range while you rinse, and let it dry.

How do I transport and store it?

Length is 12 ft, width is 36 in, and the assembled weight is 131 lb.

For transport, take off the PDL drive (19 lb) and the seat (6 lb). That is the difference between moving an awkward assembled boat and moving a hull.

The number that decides whether you can car-top this safely is not the kayak weight — it is the lowest of your vehicle's roof rating, your crossbar rating and your rack's rating. Confirm all three first. A trailer or a cart sidesteps the question entirely and is worth pricing.

What warranty applies?

Coverage is split by component, and the periods are different. The hull and deck carry limited lifetime coverage for the original retail purchaser, subject to the published terms. The PDL drive carries five years of coverage, which is longer than the two years that applies to electric drives and motors. Accessories are generally covered for one year.

Warranty service does not go through the retailer. Retailers are not authorized to perform warranty repairs on these kayaks, so the claim is opened directly with Old Town customer service rather than with us. We can help you identify the component and the right support path, but we do not decide coverage. If you want us to check a specific setup before you order, call 844-987-5777 or email sales@ecofishingshop.com.

How should I look after it?

Hose the boat and the drive down after every trip and check the propeller for line and weed while you are there. Two minutes at the ramp prevents most of what goes wrong with a pedal drive.

Store it shaded and evenly supported. Sun is what ages polyethylene, and a hull resting on one hard point for months will take the shape of that point.
