My husband and I were introduced to the world of solo sport canoes in the early 1980s when boats like the Mike Galt Dandy and the Dave Curtis Lady Bug were two of the choices to paddle. Over the years we have collected and traded or sold many wonderful solo sport canoes. A year and a half ago my husband had a bicycling accident resulting in a traumatic fracture of his right femur and hip and has given up paddling. As a result, we are offering for sale our remaining Pat Moore solo sport canoes and paddles. These boats and paddles have been lovingly used in places like the Boundary Waters Canoe Area, Buffalo River, Current River, Pearl River, Lake Pontchartrain back waters, Hatteras Island channels, Hillsboro and Blackwater Rivers in Florida, and the Everglades. We now find ourselves at that point in life where we need to downsize, meaning we need to find new homes for those canoes and paddles - several of which are collectors; all of which show a slice of the evolution of Pat Moore paddles and solo sport canoes.

Please see the list and pictures of paddles and boat and associated asking price. If you are interested or know someone who might be interested send me an email at leagough@gmail.com and we will get back to you.
Seven paddles offered for sale:
#1 – 59” Cedar, made for Jim Gough in May, 1984, has fiberglass inlay around the blade edges - $200 OBO
#2 – 59” Red Cedar & Maple, made 1986-1992, has fiberglass inlay around the blade edges - $275 OBO
#3 – 58” Cedar & Mahogany stock paddle, has fiberglass inlay around the blade, has fiberglass inlay around the blade edges, purchased at one of Pat’s close-out sales - $200 OBO
#4 – 55” Cedar & Spruce, made for Lea Gough in May, 1984, has fiberglass inlay around the blade edges - $200 OBO
#5 – 54” Cedar & Spruce made for Lea Gough in Aug, 1983, has fiberglass inlay on bottom edge - $200 OBO

Four canoes offered for sale numbered 1-4 from top to bottom.

2: Pat Moore Reverie I, standard layup, pongee color, pedestal seat, seldom used - $500 OBO
3: Pat Moore first Reverie I. This clear boat is the first hull made. This was a slip taken from the plug. (The plug is what the mold is later built on.) To make this clear hull no gel coat was used; rather it is skin coated. The finished-hull weight without the seat is 17.5 ounces. The seat is a prototype pedestal that Pat was working on at the time for smaller boats - $400 OBO
4: Pat Moore Reverie II, hull #6, built for Jim Gough by Pat Moore in Pat’s Stoughton, WI, shop. Jim built the plug for the Reverie II mold for Pat. This black Reverie II is made using E- and S-glass - $500 OBO
