Frequently Asked Questions
What is ePDL+
ePDL+ is Old Town's battery powered kayak technology that allows a kayaker the ability to use the motor only, or power-assist pedal propulsion similar to an e-bike.
How long does the ePDL+ battery last on the water?
Battery life depends on usage mode, speed, and conditions. On average, anglers can expect 2–5 hours in motor-only mode and longer when combining pedaling or using lower speeds.
What happens when the ePDL battery runs out of power?
You can still use pedal propulsion when your battery is exhausted, just like our popular line of pedal kayaks, or paddle like our traditional line of paddle kayaks.
Can I use the ePDL+ in saltwater?
Yes, the ePDL+ kayak features saltwater-safe components. We recommend rinsing thoroughly after saltwater use to ensure long-term durability.
Is the ePDL+ system removable for transport or storage?
Yes. The motor pod and pedal system are modular and can be quickly removed for transport, cleaning, or maintenance.
