Historical Context
Alfred Mylne (1881–1960) was a distinguished Scottish yacht designer whose practice extended across the early to mid-twentieth century. His designs encompassed racing yachts, cruising vessels, and motor yachts, reflecting the diversity of demand within the leisure sailing market of the era. The archive preserves numerous designs, though documentation varies considerably in completeness. Some commissions are recorded with extensive drawing sets and client correspondence, whilst others, such as Design 1010, survive in fragmentary form. This variation reflects both the vicissitudes of archival preservation and the inconsistent record-keeping practices of design offices of the period.
