Eric is a friend who has been diagnosed with ALS (Lou Gehrig’s Disease). Eric is the son of Dale & Nancy Powell owners of Power Marine Outfitters & New River Marina. Eric was strictened last summer with what was thought a brain tumor which was later diagnosed as ALS.
Eric has just returned from DUKE Medical Center, where he had a rather long stay in the ICU. He is now on a feeding tube, on a ventilator and requires round the clock in home care.

Ultimate Yacht Service – Wrightsville Beach has donated a gift certificate for the silent auction. If you don’t want to fish, you can come and buy a bbq plate for $5. We appreciate if you can attend and support Eric.

UYS is now scheduling for spring haul outs, bottom work, and compounding and waxing
services. For our larger boat owners we will also offer delivery to and from the service location.
While working with the marina of your choice, we will service, oversee, or perform any spring
make ready work that is desired. Whatever your boating needs may be, please remember
we are just a phone call away. However, we urge all customers who are interested in spring
preparations to call for early scheduling. While everyone wants to be up and running by the
Easter weekend (April 23-24), all attention will be given on a first-call, first-service basis.

It has been a long and cold winter this year, spring just cannot get here soon enough!! UYS
wishes you and yours a great 2011 boating season.
