The Old Town Sportsman 106 is a 10-foot-6 sit-on-top fishing kayak built for stability and quiet paddling. Its DoubleU pontoon hull is among the quietest on the market, and the 34.5-inch beam supports up to 363 pounds. At 77 pounds it is car-toppable for one person, though not lightweight. Owners praise its stability and fishing-ready layout, but some find it heavy to paddle and transport.

Reviewers give the Sportsman 106 high marks for stability and quietness, calling it a solid fishing platform. Many note it is heavy and slow to paddle, but most accept the trade-off for its steadiness.
The Old Town Sportsman 106 is a compact sit-on-top fishing kayak for one paddler. It has a pontoon-style DoubleU Hull that glides quietly and gives a stable platform for standing while fishing. It is light enough to car top.
The seat has a framed Textilene design with a layer of 3D mesh. The Textilene is dual-layer, UV resistant and easy to clean. The seat can be positioned high or low and adjusts fore and aft. It lifts out for transport.
The deck has a large open cockpit and an oversized tank well. Non-slip EVA foam deck pads give traction when standing. Three flush-mounted rod holders (one forward-facing, two rear-facing) sit out of the way when not in use. Two tracks on the forward hull accept accessories, and a universal transducer mounting system is built in for a fish finder.
