Historical Context
Alfred Mylne (1881–1963) was a Scottish naval architect renowned for his design of yachts ranging from small cruisers to substantial ocean-going vessels. His practice, based in Glasgow, produced designs across several decades of the twentieth century. Design 1016 falls within this period of activity, though the specific context of its commission and execution cannot be established from the archive materials currently available. The catalogue system by design number reflects the systematic documentation maintained by Mylne's office throughout his working life.
