Historical Context
Alfred Mylne was a prominent Scottish yacht designer whose practice spanned several decades of significant development in yacht design. The design of steam yachts formed part of the broader evolution in marine propulsion during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Steam power represented an important alternative to pure sailing rig, particularly for larger vessels and those requiring reliability in variable conditions. The survival of Design 1076 in the archive, albeit with limited supporting information, reflects the working practice of a busy design office where not all project details were systematically recorded or preserved.
