Historical Context
Alfred Mylne's practice encompassed both sailing and steam yachts throughout his career. Steam propulsion represented an evolving segment of yacht design during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, as owners increasingly sought the reliability and independence from weather that mechanised vessels offered. The nomenclature 'White Eagle' follows conventions common to British yacht naming of the period. Without access to dated drawings or supporting correspondence, the chronological position of Design 1180 within Mylne's broader output cannot be established. The single surviving drawing suggests the design may have been retained for archival purposes, though whether this indicates realisation or rejection remains unknown.
