Name:Johnathan Hillstrand
Position: Co-Captain/Deckhand
Years experience:
| Mini bio: Johnathan’s love for life on the edge doesn’t end when he gets off the boat. He rides a Harley Davidson that is rigged for a nitrous boost that will add 300hp at the touch of a button. He’s a leather-jacket-cowboy boot guy, but his friends say he is really a teddy bear. He is not afraid to speak his mind, and he runs a tight ship.

He runs the business side of things but always includes his brothers on the final decisions. At his ranch in Indiana, Andy engages in his other passion: horse training. He trains Quarter horses through the natural horsemanship or “horse whisperer” technique. | |

In the off-season, he runs a hydro-seeding company in Homer, Alaska. | |
