Our take on the Old Town Sportsman AutoPilot 136 Kayak

The Sportsman AutoPilot 136 is Old Town's 13 ft 6 in motorized fishing kayak. A bow-mounted Minn Kota motor with AutoPilot steering holds a heading and spot-lock position, so you fish hands-free instead of paddling or correcting. The pontoon-style hull and 660 lb capacity carry a full tackle load, and the Element seat and EVA deck are built for long days standing and casting. The best new price is $3,999 at Appomattox River Co. as of November 5, 2026, with 4 stores listing it new.

Questions and answers

Is the Sportsman AutoPilot 136 worth $3,999?: If you fish often and want hands-free positioning, the motor and spot-lock do work a paddle kayak can't. Casual anglers will find a paddle kayak far cheaper.
How does it compare with the AutoPilot 120?: The 136 is longer and rated for more capacity, so it tracks better and carries more gear. It is also heavier to handle off the water.
What battery does the motor need?: It runs on a 12V deep-cycle battery, typically a lithium or AGM unit, which is sold separately. Check the motor's amp draw before choosing battery capacity.
Can I stand and fish from it?: Yes. The pontoon-style hull and EVA foam deck are designed for standing and casting, and owners report it feels stable.
What is included in the box?: The kayak, Element seat and AutoPilot motor assembly are included. Battery, charger and most accessories are extra.
When is it cheapest?: The best new price is $3,999 at Appomattox River Co. as of November 5, 2026. Watch for end-of-season sales at the 4 stores listing it new.
