The Old Town Sportsman ePDL+ is a fishing kayak built around a power-assisted pedal drive. The ePDL+ system has three modes: manual pedaling, pedaling with five levels of power assist, and a fully motorized cruise control that runs without pedaling. It is rigged for both fresh and salt water, with a high/low adjustable seat, a slip-resistant EVA foam deck for stand-up casting, and a control screen that stays readable through polarized lenses. It suits anglers who cover long distances or fight wind and current and want motorized range without giving up pedal drive. Against human-powered fishing kayaks it adds battery weight and a drive to maintain; against pure motorized kayaks it keeps pedaling as a fallback when the battery runs down. Owners rate it highly, and the main cautions are the weight of the drive and battery and the learning curve of the modes.
