During the late 1930s he served aboard light cruisers in the Pacific and Mediterranean. During World War II he served as an instructor in naval construction, damage control, and marine engineering at the Naval Academy, eventually becoming chairman of the naval engineering department. In 1952 Gillmer wrote Naval Construction a Ship Stability, a basic text still in use in the naval architecture program at the Academy. He retired from active teaching at the Academy in 1967 and began to devote full time to the design of yachts and ship replicas. His first successful yacht design was the 1946 Blue Moon. Subsequent designs were the Southern Cross and Seawind series. He designed Pride of Baltimore 3,(1976-77), the pungy Lady Maryland (1979), and Pride 2L Baltimore 11. (1988). Most recently Gillmer prepared a study of the USS Constitution for her overhaul by the navy.
