The Old Town Sportsman PDL 106 is a one-person, sit-on-top pedal fishing kayak for fishing and hunting. It is 10 ft 6 in long and weighs 107 lbs assembled, so it can be car topped. The PDL Drive pedal system gives instant forward and reverse and leaves your hands free for fishing.
The DoubleU Hull is built for stability and glides quietly, and it works as a stand-up fishing platform. Non-slip EVA foam deck pads give traction when standing. The seat slides on a shuttle track to fit leg length, and its mesh cover provides ventilation and drainage. The PDL Drive and seat are removable for transport and storage. The PDL Drive has a patented easy-docking system for launching and landing.
Rod and gear storage includes one forward-facing and two rear-facing flush-mounted rod holders, dedicated horizontal rod storage, an oversized stern tank well, storage under the seat, side pockets, and a sealed bow hatch for dry storage. Two 18" tracks on the forward hull take accessories. A universal transducer mounting system is built in for a fish finder. A clip on the hull holds a backup paddle, and there is a cup holder. A custom tackle box is included.
