Historical Context
Alfred Mylne's career as a yacht designer spanned a period of significant transition in maritime technology. Steam propulsion represented a major development in yacht design, offering owners greater independence from wind and weather compared to sailing vessels. Mylne's practice included designs for both steam and sailing yachts, reflecting client demands and technological capabilities of the era. The preservation of design drawings, such as the two sheets associated with Lady Henriette, provides evidence of proposals that may or may not have proceeded to construction. Such archival records document the range of Mylne's design work and the variety of vessel types commissioned during his professional lifetime.
