John Murphy G-Layer

John has a background in the maritime industry and ICT. For several years he worked as an instructor in the Brisbane and Gold Coast area, teaching basic seamanship, bar crossings, coastal navigation and passage planning. He has also done a great deal of international work in the NGO sector, taking him to many and varied parts of the globe.

In much earlier days, John used to also enjoy aerobatic flying, throwing small aircraft around the skies even before he could drive a car. Of course he still wishes (out loud) that he had the time to go back to this hobby, maybe one day he’ll get his dream and stop talking about it so much.

In his off time, John works as a crew trainer and Rescue Skipper for the Australian Volunteer Coast Guard, where he is responsible for coordinating Search and Rescue ops, working closely with the New South Wales Water Police and the Royal Australian Navy on exercises and operations. He also enjoys running on the beautiful beaches of the NSW north coast with his two insane woolly groodles.
