Historical Context
Alfred Mylne's design practice extended throughout the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries, encompassing both sailing and steam yachts. Steam propulsion, introduced commercially to yachting during the nineteenth century, gradually transformed the market for custom designs. Mylne's engagement with steam yacht design reflected the technical and aesthetic challenges of integrating mechanical systems with established yacht-building traditions. The archive's cataloguing system assigns sequential design numbers to projects, though not all designs necessarily progressed to realisation. The preservation of two drawings suggests this design received sufficient development to warrant detailed documentation, though the absence of supporting correspondence or construction records prevents fuller understanding of its history.
