Imagine leaving home at the age of 14 to pursue a dream of a life at sea. That’s exactly what my next guest did. In this podcast Andrew Leak and I talk about the exotic locations he visited while with the merchant navy, becoming a salesman for Sanyo, meeting his wife, and his current role as flotilla commander of the Coast Guard in Noosa. Meeting a yearly funding shortfall of around $270,000 is one part of his job and Andrew is thankful to his two major supporters, Tom Offermann Real Estate and Bendigo Bank.
