Historical Context
Alfred Mylne (1865–1960) established himself as one of Scotland's foremost naval architects, with particular reputation in yacht design spanning several decades. His practice encompassed both sail and steam vessels, reflecting the technological transition of early twentieth-century marine architecture. Steam yachts represented a distinct category within Mylne's work, combining practical engineering with the aesthetic principles that characterised his larger body of yacht designs. The archive preserves numerous designs across multiple vessel types, offering insight into the range and development of his professional practice.
