Historical Context
Alfred Mylne's design practice encompassed both sailing and steam-propelled vessels across several decades. Steam yachts represented a significant category within late nineteenth and early twentieth-century yacht design, reflecting the gradual technological transition within leisure vessel construction. Design 1182 appears within Mylne's chronological records, though the precise date of the design remains unspecified in the archive. Without additional documentation—such as client correspondence, cost estimates, or construction records—the design's status within Mylne's broader portfolio cannot be definitively established. The survival of two drawings suggests sufficient development for preliminary presentation or client consideration, though this remains inference rather than established fact.
