“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.

Brad has been a member of ESSA since 2010. The ESSA bridge is delighted to have someone of his experience and accomplishment among us. His presentation should certainly engage all in attendance.
