Charles Mill Marina Crew

With fifty years of experience in the boating industry, Bob brings seasoned competence to the boating business. After operating the Clearfork Marina southwest of Mansfield for some twenty-five years, he bought the Charles Mill Marina in 1985 and then the Pleasant Hill Marina in 2004.

On any day of the week you can find him scouting out possible problems and discovering solutions, ensuring the smooth operation of every aspect of the business. 

Bob is longtime member of the National Ski Patrol at Snow Trails Ski Area. If you ask Bob about the highlight of his boating year at the marina, he’ll tell you hands down that it’s the fireworks show in July. Not to be missed.

John brings over 35 years of experience in the boating industry to our parts and service department. He began in the early 1980’s at Clearfork Marina near Lexington, Ohio, working in boat sales, service, parts and operations. John managed Apple Valley Marina in Howard, Ohio, for over a decade.

John now helps oversee day-to-day operations at Charles Mill Marina and coordinating service work. 

Fun fact: John once lived in the apartment that used to be half of the main building here at Charles Mill Marina.

Karie has been with the Charles Mill and Pleasant Hill Marinas for 12 years and works with Andrew and Bob to manage the daily activities of the marina. Her interests don’t run far from her job either, as her love of tubing and lake cruising attest. Her favorite events at the lake are Christmas in July, and the annual lake concert.

Mike started with Charles Mill Marina in 2010 working in the rental and docking departments.  He now brings his strong organizational and customer service skills to the sales side of the business.  Mike puts his time into each sale to make sure each customer is able to leave with the exact boat they are looking for.
