I love my Old Town Sportsman 120 PDL. It would be awesome if Old Town sold that trolling motor to fit into the footprint of where my pedal system sits. Until then, I'll install a watersnake off the side gunwale.
Ensure that your remote is on the appropriate setting - it should be in AutoPilot Legacy mode, offset -2. Here's a link to the manual: johnsonoutdoors.widen.net/s/flnpqmmsgz/autopilot_remote_pairing_setup_guide
I wish I could win this beautiful kayak old town autopilot 120 so I can complete my mission of saving our beautiful waterways universe by picking up trash and keeping it clean. Please, old Town, help me out with this beautiful kayak
Edgar, you're welcome to submit a proposal at any point to our CS team for consideration. We support water cleanup efforts, but we don't give kayaks away - You could always ask your local dealer if they'd be willing to work with you to sponsor your efforts.
The magnetic kill switch on the motor is a safety issue. It loses connection way too easy and can cause problems on the water. You might think spot lock is on and you can now be tying something new on, just to look up and be in the rocks because your motor lost power. I love the autopilot, but this is one of the flaws of the boat for sure.
@@OldTownCanoeKayak I have and even used zip ties to keep it from moving in the rubber piece. I figured out a work around, but I’m sure it wouldn’t be warranty friendly. Lol.
Thanks
Great demo. Maybe another to troubleshoot problems?
good idea!
Anyway to replace with a gas motor more powerful? Trailing motor is weak especially in strong currency...
What happens if you lose that magnet piece to the motor?
My trolling motor will not go all the way down the foot is hitting my old town kayak

@Old Town okay, thanks. I'll try to do that and hope to see if they can help me out.

Thanks for the feedback, Ryon. Have you tried adjusting the red piece (sliding it through the bracket) so that it maintains connection?
