Historical Context
Alfred Mylne (1868–1960) established himself as one of Scotland's most prolific yacht designers, with a practice spanning over six decades. His designs encompassed racing yachts, cruising vessels, and fishing boats, reflecting the diverse maritime requirements of the era. Mylne's approach integrated traditional Scottish design principles with contemporary developments in yacht architecture. Design 1031 forms part of a catalogue of over one thousand designs, though not all have been fully documented or photographed for the archive. The incomplete record of this particular design reflects both the scale of Mylne's practice and the challenges inherent in preserving comprehensive historical documentation.
