On December 20, 2007 Joe and Alison Elder, owners of Skipjack Nautical Wares & Marine Gallery, lost their home and business in a tragic fire in Historic Olde Towne Portsmouth. 

Fortunately, they escaped with other family members, their two cats and dogs.

As business members and friends of the community, they always helped everyone in need. They never said no.  Today, they need our help.
