- Olin James Stephens II (April 13, 1908 – September 13, 2008) was an American yacht designer. Stephens was born in New York City, but spent his summers with his brother Rod, learning to sail on the New England coast. He also attended the Massachusetts Institute of Technology for a term. Stephens' name had a long history in connection with America's Cup. He assisted W. Starling Burgess with the design of the J-Class Ranger, which won the America's Cup in 1937, defeating the Royal Yacht Squadron's Endeavour II in four races. He was the original designer of six out of seven successful 12 Metre defenders of the America's Cup between 1958 and 1980, with the exception of Weatherly in 1962. Other than Ranger, the most remarkable of his defenders was the Intrepid. She had a rudder separate from her keel to reduce wetted surface and improve steering. Stephens had previously designed separate rudders on a number of increasingly large ocean racers of the 1960s, most notably Thomas Watson's state of the art Palawan III, before using it successfully on the Intrepid in 1967. After alterations by Britton Chance, Jr., she won the America's Cup again in 1970. Stephens also designed many off-shore and stock boats, including the Dark Harbor 20, which he designed in 1934. His brother, Roderick Stephens, was also a partner in the yacht-designing and yacht brokerage firm Sparkman & Stephens, specializing in supervision and testing of yachts designed by the firm. Olin was working in the Nevins shipyard in 1928 as a draftsman when he first met yacht broker Drake Sparkman. They together set up an office next door to Nevins in 1929. Since retiring from the company he lived in Hanover, New Hampshire, where he spent his final years writing computer programs for designing yachts. He was awarded the Herreshoff Award by the North American Yacht Racing Union in 1965 for his contributions to sailing. Stephens was also involved in ocean-going sailboats. His yawl designs Dorade (1929) and Stormy Weather (1934), his favorite design, each won the Newport Bermuda Race and the Fastnet race several times. Both brothers were accomplished yachtsmen. They were members of the winning crews of Dorade and Ranger. Olin served as tactician and navigator, while Rod trimmed the rig and sails. In the 1960s and 1970s, Olin contributed to the luxury yacht builders Nautor Swan of Finland and Hallberg-Rassy of Sweden. (en)
- Olin James Stephens II (New York, 13 aprile 1908 – Hanover, 13 settembre 2008) è stato un velista e progettista navale statunitense. È nato a New York, ed ha frequentato il Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Il nome Stephens ha avuto una lunga storia in relazione alla Coppa America. Ha collaborato con W. Starling Burgess, per la progettazione del J-Class Ranger, che ha vinto la Coppa America nel 1937, sconfiggendo il Royal Yacht Squadron di Endeavour II in quattro gare. È stato il progettista originale di sei su sette 12 Metri di successo difensori della Coppa America tra il 1958 e il 1980, con l'eccezione di Weatherly nel 1962. Oltre Ranger, il più notevole dei suoi progetti è stato Intrepid. Aveva un timone separato dalla chiglia per ridurre la superficie bagnata e migliorare la virata. Stephens ha progettato anche molte imbarcazioni off-shore, tra cui Dark Harbor 20, che ha disegnato nel 1934. Suo fratello, Roderick Stephens, è stato anche partner della società di brokeraggio Sparkman & Stephens. Olin stava lavorando nel cantiere Nevins nel 1928 come disegnatore, quando incontrò Drake Sparkman, insieme fondarono un ufficio accanto al Nevins nel 1929. Dopo il suo ritiro della società ha vissuto a Hanover, New Hampshire, dove ha trascorso i suoi ultimi anni creando programmi per computer di yacht design. Ha ricevuto il Premio Herreshoff dallo Yacht Racing Union Nord America nel 1965 per i suoi contributi alla vela. Dorade 1929 Stephens ha partecipato anche a regate d'altura. La sua Dorade yawl (1929) e Stormy Weather (1934), hanno vinto la Newport Bermuda Race e la Fastnet più volte. Entrambi i fratelli erano affermati velisti. Erano membri degli equipaggi vincenti di Dorade e Ranger. Olin imbarcato come tattico e navigatore, mentre Rod impiegato ai winch. Negli anni 1960 e 1970, Olin ha collaborato con i cantieri Nautor Swan di Finlandia e Hallberg-Rassy, in Svezia. In Italia, il caro Olin, (come veniva confidenzialmente chiamato questo grande vecchio), aveva attivamente collaborato con il Cantiere Navale Dell'Argentario, di Porto Santo Stefano, fornendo il suo prezioso contributo per il restauro di imbarcazioni d'epoca. Nel 1993, Stephens è stato inserito nella Hall of Fame della Coppa America, ed insignito della Gibbs Brothers Medal presso l'Accademia Nazionale delle Scienze. Diversi anni dopo, nel 2000, scrisse la sua autobiografia All This and Sailing Too. È stato il membro numero 1 della Lista Seniority del New York Yacht club al momento della sua morte. Stephens è morto esattamente cinque mesi dopo aver compiuto il suo 100º compleanno nel 2008. (it)
