翻訳と辞書　辞書検索 [ 開発暫定版 ] スポンサード リンク Steven Callahan ： ウィキペディア英語版 Steven Callahan Steven Callahan (born 1952) is an American author, naval architect, inventor, and sailor noted for having survived for 76 days adrift on the Atlantic Ocean in a liferaft. Callahan recounted his ordeal in the best-selling book ''Adrift: 76 Days Lost At Sea'' (1986), which was on the New York Times best-seller list for more than 36 weeks. ==Biography== Callahan holds a university degree in Philosophy. A naval architect by training, Callahan has designed and built boats, taught design, lived aboard, raced, and cruised boats of all kinds. Since the 1980s, he has also written widely for the yachting press worldwide, has been a contributing editor to ''Sail'' and ''Sailor'' magazines, senior editor of ''Cruising World'', has authored ''Adrift'' and ''Capsized'', the story of four men who drifted for four months on an overturned, half-flooded boat. He's also lectured widely and contributed to a number of other books on design, seamanship, and survival. He holds three U.S. patents: a drogue-like boat stability and directional-control device (Patent No. 6684808); a Folding Rigid-Inflatable Boat (FRIB) (Patent No. 6367404); and a Folding Rigid-bottom Boat (FRB) (Patent No. 6739278). The initial model FRIB, called "The Clam" was developed on the basis of his survival experience. The Clam is a multifunction self-rescue dinghy, designed for use as a proactive lifeboat (as well as a yacht tender) that allows the sailor to sail to safety.〔("Sinking survivor designs life raft" ), ''CNN'', April 22, 2002.〕 Callahan asserts that "It certainly would be nice to have a completely different kind of raft now, what the French call a "Dynamic" raft, meaning the thing sails. The last time I lost my boat, had I been able to beam reach, I could have shortened my drift from 1,800 miles to 450; had I been able to sail even dead downwind but increase speed to a moderate 2.5 knots, I would have been afloat 25 days rather than 76; had I been able to do both I would have sailed to safety in a mere 6 or 7 days." 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「Steven Callahan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
