Our take on the Old Town Sportsman Discovery 119 Solo Canoe

The Sportsman Discovery 119 is a 11-foot-9-inch solo hybrid that paddles like a canoe but rigs like a fishing kayak. It has four flush-mounted rod holders, a recessed accessory track on the forward thwart, a padded Flex seat with armrest trays, a cup holder, adjustable foot braces and a tackle box in the box. Owners like how light it is to car-top and how well it tracks in wind, and they use it for fly fishing, duck hunting and day trips on small rivers. The trade-offs are a seat several reviewers find uncomfortable, a plastic track bar some doubt will last, and an interior that feels tighter than the outside suggests.

Questions and answers

Is the Discovery 119 a kayak or a canoe?
It is a solo canoe hull with kayak-style seating and accessories. You paddle it with a canoe or kayak paddle, and it handles small rivers much like a sit-on-top kayak.
How does it compare with a sit-on-top fishing kayak?
It is lighter and easier to car-top than most fishing kayaks, and it carries more gear in an open hull. Sit-on-tops usually offer more open deck space and self-draining, while this boat tracks better in wind.
Can one person load it on a roof rack?
Owners say yes. Its low weight is one of the most praised traits, and most report loading it solo onto a car top or into a truck bed.
What comes in the box?
The boat ships with a tackle box. The rod holders, accessory track, Flex seat, armrest trays, cup holder and foot braces are built in.
Is it stable enough to stand and fish?
Owners describe it as stable, but it is a narrow solo canoe, so most fish seated. Standing is not what reviewers recommend.
Does it work for duck hunting?
Yes. Hunters use it for decoys and gear, though the camo finish is not always easy to find.
