Historical Context

Alfred Mylne's design practice extended across the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, a period of considerable diversity in yacht design and construction. The year 1908 falls within a significant phase of his professional career. Design 149 sits among numerous commissions undertaken during these years, each contributing to the understanding of contemporary yacht design practice. The survival of twenty-three drawings for this single design indicates the thoroughness of Mylne's draughting methodology, though the loss or non-preservation of supplementary information limits what can be determined about the design's performance or reception.
