Rob and Kelly Hillman
Body
Having taken up sailing as a retirement hobby, Rob and his wife, Kelly, enjoy cruising the Great Lakes on their Hunter Legend 40.5, S.V. Windshadow. Typically, they splash in June and return in September. During breaks in cruising, you might find Windshadow tied to a mooring ball in her home port of Presque Isle harbor, where Rob and Kelly serve as GLCC Port Captains. The couple also have experience on the Eastern U.S. coast, the ICW and the Caribbean. Kelly and Rob are now in their 10th season aboard Windshadow and are excited to share their experiences cruising the Great Lakes.
