Historical Context
Alfred Mylne was a Scottish naval architect of considerable standing whose design practice spanned several decades. Design 126, culminating in Medora's construction in 1906, falls within the early period of his practice. The early twentieth century represented a significant era in yacht design, characterised by evolving approaches to hull form, stability, and seakeeping qualities. Mylne's designs from this period reflect the technical knowledge and aesthetic preferences current amongst yacht owners and builders of the time. The preservation of fourteen drawings for this single design demonstrates the detailed documentation methods employed by Mylne's office.
