Teams in the best-ball competition were comprised of one NEPGA Professional and one Officer from their facility.
The pair made four birdies without a bogey in a front-9 32 and played the back nine one-under par to post 67 and pick up a one-shot victory.
Martin and Gilmore edged John Dalrymple, of Rockland Golf Club and Jay Miller, who posted a 4-under 68, by one.
Craig Coombes, of Braintree Municipal and Joe Kearney posted a net 9-under 63 to take top honors in the net division, edging Martin and Gilmore by a stroke. Rick Finlayson, of Franklin Golf Club and Jeff Gray tied for third in the net division with John Rainone, of North Kingstown Golf Club and Bill Alves.
