Historical Context
Alfred Mylne's design practice spanned the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries, encompassing both steam and sailing vessels. Steam yachts represented an important category of commission during the period, particularly for clients seeking reliability and independence from wind conditions. The nomenclature—Monsoon—suggests maritime context, though the specific commission circumstances remain undocumented. Design 1175 occupies a place within Mylne's extensive output, though its precise chronological position and ultimate realisation cannot be confirmed from extant records.
