Carl Alberg (1900 – 31 August 1986) was a Swedish born yacht designer known for his influence in early fiberglass boats. == Career == He moved to the United States in 1925 where he began working as a rigger then later as a spar maker. Alberg was then hired by John Alden as a designer.〔(''Carl Alberg bio on Alberg30.org'' )〕 His successful career and current fame as a designer however can be linked back to his partnership with Pearson Yachts and early fiberglass yacht construction. Their first collaboration was the Pearson Triton, a 28 foot fiberglass yacht which today is still frequently seen sailing oceans around the world. Alberg later designed several other models for Pearson yachts. He also designed the first model for Bristol yachts. One of his most famous and popular designs is also one of his earliest, the Alberg 30 which was built by Whitby Boatworks in Canada as a one design club racer. Though this boat had a record breaking production run of over 750 boats spanning 22 years and proved a good platform for ocean cruising.〔(''Review of the Alberg 30, Bluewaterboats.org'' )〕 Another successful partnership was with Cape Dory Yachts who produced 10 different models designed by Alberg. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Carl Alberg」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
