PROPULSION TECHNOLOGY

With over 125 years of cutting edge, superior design and quality, Old Town leads the industry with the most advanced, forward-thinking propulsion technologies. Whether you prefer power, pedal, or paddle, Old Town's propulsion innovation keeps your kayak and your adventures moving forward. 

ePDL+

The patented Old Town ePDL+ Drive is a revolutionary power-assisted pedal drive designed to keep anglers in the chase with the most versatile propulsion options on the market. Easily switch from Manual Pedal mode to Power Assist mode with five levels of motorized assistance. Kick back and relax when you switch into Cruise Control mode while the battery-powered motor takes over. The backlit LCD display keeps your battery and assistance visible in bright daylight and with polarized sunglasses.

AutoPilot

The Old Town Sportsman AutoPilot is built around the most advanced kayak propulsion system on the market. We started with a 45-lb thrust, saltwater-safe Minn Kota Powerdrive trolling motor, and designed a custom stow and deploy system making it easy to install, deploy, and lift the motor from a seated position. Spot-Lock technology uses a GPS receiver in the motor head to hold your kayak in position despite wind and current, keeping your hands free to cast, fight a fish or change lures. Control it all with the ergonomic and intuitive Minn Kota iPilot remote, custom designed for use on a kayak.

106 Powered by Minn Kota

The 45-lb thrust, saltwater-safe Minn Kota motor console on the 106 Powered by Minn Kota gets you effortlessly where you want to go with intuitive controls. Simply push the boat-style throttle forward and reverse to control your speed, and steer using the integrated footbrace controlled rudder. The motor console sits flush with the rest of the deck, leaving your kayak wide open to stand, fish, and stretch out. The motor installs in seconds and tips up quickly when launching and landing.

PDL Drive

The most reliable pedal-powered fishing machine of its kind. It gets you to the spot fast, and keeps you on the spot without paddling. With forward, reverse and agile maneuverability, you’ll experience precise boat control while your hands remain free to focus on fishing. The removable pedal drive installs in seconds and tips up instantly for shallow water docking. An industry leading 5-year warranty speaks to the durability of the PDL Drive, and our commitment to the gear we make.
