Carl Alberg (11 April 1901 – 31 August 1986)[1] was a Swedish born naval architect known for his influence in early fiberglass boats.
Alberg moved to the United States in 1925 where he began working as a rigger then later as a spar maker.
[2] 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.
[3] Another successful partnership was with Cape Dory Yachts who produced 10 different models designed by Alberg.
