The PDL Drive itself is easy to carry, operate and stow-and a proprietary weedless prop design creates the perfect combination of efficiency, speed, and torque. It also makes trolling through a range of user-adjustable speeds easy and effective.

A 10.3:1 gear ratio means that anglers can reach speeds up to 5.5 mph to reach fishing spots fast and efficiently. What’s the adage? Like riding bike? While some pedal-driven kayaks rely on other physical motions, the Old Town PDL pedals exactly like a bicycle, converting modest pedaling into maximum propulsion. One of the key differences between the Old Town Predator PDL and other pedal-driven kayaks on the market stems from engineering rooted in proven lifecycle technologies. The end result offers superior maneuverability in wind, current, and around structure. To that end, our R&D spent three years creating the most durable, dependable, fastest, quietest, and intuitive pedal-driven mechanism in the industry, as well as the perfect hull and boat design to go with it. “We wanted to create the best pedal fishing experience on the planet, complete with forward and reverse.
