Historical Context

Alfred Mylne's practice encompassed a broad range of vessel types throughout a career spanning several decades. Motor yachts and single screw designs became increasingly common in his work during the twentieth century, reflecting evolving client preferences and marine engineering developments. The preservation of Design 171 within the archive, despite incomplete historical records, underscores both the extent of Mylne's output and the challenges inherent in archival research where construction records have been lost or dispersed.
