Historical Context

Alfred Mylne operated as a yacht designer during a period of significant development in sailing yacht design. His practice encompassed a wide range of vessel types and sizes. The preservation of Design 159 within the archive documents Mylne's continuing output, though specific historical context for this particular design cannot be established from the available information. The existence of Werner's 12m as a built example indicates the design achieved practical realisation, but the circumstances and period of that construction remain undocumented in the current archival record.
