The Sportsman PDL 106 puts Old Town’s forward and reverse PDL drive on a 36 inch wide DoubleU hull that is stable for standing. Its seat adjusts on a shuttle track for leg length, and you get three flush rod holders, two 18 inch tracks, a sealed bow hatch, an oversized stern tankwell and a custom tackle box.

KayakDIY take: A short pedal boat is a good fit for tight water where a 12 footer gets awkward. Read my full Old Town Sportsman PDL 106 review.
