Episode #89 John Bertrand - America's Cup Winning Skipper & Businessman
This week Brian and Harrison kick things off with some general chit-chat, they discuss; A very interesting function they attended recently, the installation of a memorial bench seat for BT's great mate, Michael Turner, the state of the West Gate Freeway, the major AFL headlines, a mailbag, a 'Chat-BT' and plenty more.
Joining them on the mic this week is the great John Bertrand. John is most famously known as the skipper of the 1983 America's Cup winning Yacht Australia II, a victory that is hailed as the greatest in international teams sports history.
Beyond this, John also completed at 2x Olympic Games (where he won a bronze medal), has been the president of Swimming Australia, started numerous, highly successful businesses in engineering and media, and has been Chair of the Sport Australia Hall of Fame Board since 2005. Anyone who has been lucky enough to spend some time with John, fully understands why success is cultivated wherever he goes. He's a master in the psychology of leadership and high performance, a true gentleman and, undoubtably, an Australia legend. We thank John for his time.
