This week @BulwarksandBulldust speaks with Bill Barry-Cotter AM about his immense 65 year career from Mariner on Pittwater to Maritimo on the Gold Coast, and everything in between, including the recent acquisition of the moulds for the larger Caribbean vessels. In his seventh decade in the business, there's plenty of gold dust discovered and bulldust called out along the way.
