Alfred Mylne's design practice encompassed steam yachts alongside sailing vessels during a period when steam power was becoming established in private yacht design. The presence of Design 1181 in the archive indicates Mylne's engagement with steam propulsion technology, though the specific context—whether experimental, speculative, or commissioned—cannot be determined from extant records. The drawing's survival, whilst the surrounding documentation has been lost or was never created, reflects the fragmentary nature of nineteenth and early twentieth-century yacht design archives.
