Jeremy Charles Rogers, MBE (born Thaxted, Essex, September 16, 1937) is a British boat builder and sailor, based in Lymington, Hampshire, in the United Kingdom, and the manager of an eponymous boatyard, Jeremy Rogers Limited.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.jeremyrogers.co.uk/about-jeremy-rogers/ )〕 During his 50-year career Rogers has been responsible for the construction of a large number of well-known yachts〔 〕 and established himself as a first-class yachtsman. ==Early life== Evacuated to rural Canada during the Second World War, Rogers and his brothers passed the long winters making model boats, but it was back in England that Rogers built his first proper dinghy at the age of ten whilst at Clayesmore School in Dorset.〔http://www.ocsociety.co.uk/system/documents/53/original/Jeremy_Rogers_Revisited_-_Henry_Teed.pdf?1265710545〕 Then, after serving his apprenticeship with Jack Chippendale MBE as a traditional wooden boatbuilder, he set up in business in 1961 at the age of 23. Despite his training in wooden boatbuilding, he was one of the first to appreciate the potential of glass-reinforced plastic (GRP), and he went initially into the production of GRP dinghies, followed in 1966 by a modified GRP Folkboat〔 (【引用サイトリンク】title=History )〕 called the Contessa 26. This was an instant success,〔 〕 as was the subsequent Contessa 32,〔http://www.co32.org/〕 designed in collaboration with David Sadler. 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「Jeremy Rogers」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
