Design 152 represents one of Alfred Mylne's proposals from the early twentieth century. The design was realised as the yacht Frosetta, completed in 1908. The archive holds five original drawings related to this design. Beyond the vessel's construction date and name, detailed specifications regarding dimensions, rig configuration, builder, and original client remain incomplete in current records.

Historical Context
Alfred Mylne established his design practice in the late nineteenth century, operating during the golden age of yacht design. The early 1900s saw substantial innovation in sailing yacht development, with designers responding to evolving racing rules and owner preferences. Design 152 and Frosetta occupy this transitional period. The survival of drawings in the Mylne archive provides material evidence of professional practice, though it does not in itself establish the vessel's subsequent history, racing performance, or longevity. Further contextual work would require consultation of contemporary yacht registers and maritime periodicals.
