Frequently Asked Questions About the Old Town Sportsman PDL 120 PRO

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

The Old Town Sportsman PDL 120 PRO suits anglers who want pedal power and the capacity to rig the boat heavily with sonar, a battery and a full crate.

It is 12 ft long, 36 in wide and 131 lb assembled, and it carries 420 lb, against the 384 lb of the standard PDL 120.

It adds a bow-mount motor insert pattern, a shallow-water-anchor-ready stern mount and thru-hull wiring ports over the standard PDL 120.

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

The Old Town Sportsman PDL 120 PRO is rated at 565 lb total and 420 lb usable.

Usable capacity is what is left for you and gear after the boat itself. The 131 lb assembled figure covers the 106 lb hull, the 19 lb drive and the 6 lb seat, so those do not come off again.

That is 36 lb more usable load than the standard PDL 120, which matters once a bow-mount motor and its battery are aboard.

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

The Old Town Sportsman PDL 120 PRO runs the PDL Drive, a leg-powered propeller unit with instant forward and reverse, controlled entirely by your legs.

The 19 lb console lifts out of its well, and a locking rudder knob holds your steering position while you fish.

This model also accepts the ePDL+ RetroFit, which adds power assist on its own 36V 6.5Ah battery with separate published runtimes. Those figures are not the same as the factory ePDL+ kayaks.

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

Yes, the 19 lb pedal console on the Old Town Sportsman PDL 120 PRO lifts out of its well for shallow water, weed and loading.

No minimum operating depth is published for this model, so we will not put a number on it. Pull the drive before the propeller can reach bottom.

The stern mount is shallow-water-anchor ready if you want to hold position in skinny water.

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

Yes, and a paddle should be aboard the Old Town Sportsman PDL 120 PRO every trip.

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

No paddle or life jacket is supplied. On a boat this heavily rigged, a paddle leash is worth adding so it is not the thing that goes over the side.

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

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

Rinse the hull, the drive, the propeller and the aluminum accessory tracks with fresh water after every salt trip.

Give the thru-hull wiring ports and any sonar fittings the same attention, since electrical connections are exposed to salt too.

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

Take the 19 lb drive and 6 lb seat out of the Old Town Sportsman PDL 120 PRO first, which leaves a 106 lb hull from 131 lb assembled.

Roof capability is limited by the lowest of your vehicle roof rating, crossbar rating and rack rating, and by what you can lift. Our car-topping guide sets out the equipment.

A cart or trailer may be more practical depending on the vehicle, the rack and available loading aids.

What warranty applies to the Old Town Sportsman PDL 120 PRO?

Coverage on the Old Town Sportsman PDL 120 PRO is split by component, with a different period for each.

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. A trolling motor you add yourself is covered by its own manufacturer.

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

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

Rinse the Old Town Sportsman PDL 120 PRO and its drive after every trip, and check the propeller for line and weed.

Keep the thru-hull wiring ports and any sonar connections clean and dry, since those fail long before the drive does.

Store the hull shaded and evenly supported. Sunlight is what ages polyethylene over the years.

Amazing Kayak

I have to say the only thing I regret about this boat is not getting into one sooner.. My previous kayak was an angler sit in, which served me well for 10 years. My back just started not approving of long outings in it though.. So this time I was in the market for a sit on top. After lots of research, I ended up with the Old Town PDL. A few of the highlights.
- Took only 10 minutes to get everything put together and out onto the water.
- Seat is super comfortable, and even after a few hours on the water, I had no cramps or back aches.
- The PDL power is a lot quicker then I thought it would be. It also makes it a lot easier to control your drift while fishing. Previously I had to put the rod down, and paddle.. Now I can just reverse while still fishing if I am getting blown in somewhere.
- Multi rod storage all in reach.. I typically go out with 2 rods, and this set up is perfect.. with the 2 holder behind the seat, I can easily swap between rods, and I can also move the primary one to the front hole while peddling.
- The back storage area is perfect for a pup companion as well.. He previously sat in the cockpit with me, which was not great for eiehter of us.. Now he has plenty of room to sit, lay down, or look around.. He seems much more comfortable in this boat!

If you are thinking about this boat, I say go for it, you will not be disappointed.

AMAZING BOAT

When I say Boat, I mean it😂. This thing is not a kayak. I love the stability on it and the rigging ability is endless.

Also, the whole Eco fishing service is amazing. Very responsive and my kayak took about 2 and a half weeks to come in. And not a single problem with it as well.

Great Kayak with Thoughtful Design and Solid Performance

I recently picked up the Old Town Sportsman PDL Pro 120, and after spending time rigging it out and getting it on the water, I’ve been really impressed with how well it’s designed for fishing.

The pedal drive is smooth and efficient, the layout feels very functional, and there’s plenty of room to customize the setup. It feels stable on the water and gives me confidence whether I’m moving around, fishing, or managing gear. I especially appreciate how easy it is to rig electronics and accessories with the full length track system, everything just makes sense from a usability standpoint.

The PDL Pro feels like a kayak that balances performance, simplicity, and fishability really well.

Also had a great experience purchasing through Eco Fishing Shop. It was a smooth process and great service.

If you’re considering a fishing kayak in this class, this is definitely one worth looking at.

Great kayak. Many upgrades from the older model. Improved seat, rod storage, tank well bigger. Seat area takes on a lot of water so don’t store clothing next to seat.

Eco Fishing Shop is awesome!

To start with my “local” Old Town dealer is in Knoxville Tennessee and the owner of the business told me that his Old Town rep told him the Sportsman 120 PDL Pro wouldn’t be released until July of this year (2026) and also the only difference between it and the original Sportsman 120 PDL was a couple of cosmetic changes. Wow!!! That immediately made me start searching for a knowledgeable company to buy from and boy did Eco Fishing Shop knock it out of the park! Short phone call and they answered all of my questions, hung up phone and placed my order off the website, and 2 weeks to the day my new Yak was delivered, unloaded, and placed under my carport damage free! Thank you Eco Fishing Shop, you just earned a lifelong customer! And to my local dealer, I hope you can sell enough hiking boots to pay your bills! 😂

Amazing Kayak

I love my new pair of Old Town Sportsman PDL Pro 120 kayaks. I’ve had them for a few weeks now and have made multiple trips out with them. They are incredibly stable even in rough conditions, and having the PDL is a game changer. My only complaint with the new Pro model is that water collects under the seat. As I use this mainly in saltwater I’m concerned if this will prematurely rust the hardware on the seat rails. My experience with Eco was superb! I went with the new guaranteed shipping and wrap and neither kayak had any damage whatsoever. It did take some time to receive them but I wasn’t in a hurry.

Old town 120pdl pro

The old town 120pdl pro is very stable it is well laid out for my fishing and Maryland crabbing adventures. The thing that I don’t like is the front handle it would be better if it was molded into the bow of the kayak instead of were it is now

Francisco Leon
Awesome

Will buy again very quick shipping on my kayak not perfect but not terrible, kayak was still usable the deep scratches are probably not even Eco fishing faults and land more on the delivery service, but in all fairness it's not a small kayak and I appreciate them for delivery the kayak. I will be purchasing my next kayaks with Eco fishing shop, thanks.

Fantastic kayak

I am so excited. Old Town hit a home run with this one. Gear tracks everywhere. Access to the hull with wired grommets in several places. Pedal system is quiet and easy to pedal. 3.0 mph is pretty easy. Trolling at 1.2 mph is achievable all day.
