SPEAKER: Dr. Bradley Stevens
"The
Discovery of the Russian Ship Kad’yak"
Dr. Bradley Stevens is Professor Emeritus of Marine Science from
the University of Maryland Eastern Shore. He learned to sail and repair a
series of “almost free” boats including a Catalina 22 and a Tanzer 26. His
retirement boat bucks are now rapidly disappearing into a recently acquired
Catalina 36. Prior to washing ashore in Salisbury, he worked in Alaska for 22
years, during which he
discovered the 1860 wreck of the three-masted Russian ship Kad’yak. He
published the Kad’yak story in a book, “The Ship, the Saint, and the Sailor;
the Long Search for the Legendary Kad’yak”, and in 2022 helped make a video
about it for National Geographic. He currently
publishes environmental science articles under the title “Ecologist At Large”
on Substack.com.

His presentation should certainly engage all in attendance.
