Historical Context

Alfred Mylne's design practice flourished during the early twentieth century, a period marked by significant developments in yacht design and construction. The year 1908 places Design 154 within the Edwardian era of British yacht design, a time when Mylne was establishing his reputation as a leading designer of sailing vessels. The preservation of twenty-nine drawings for a single design demonstrates the thoroughness expected in professional yacht design offices of this period. Such drawing sets would have guided builders through every aspect of construction, from hull lines to structural details.
