Historical Context
Centre board yachts occupied an important position in early 20th-century yacht design. This type of vessel combined the shallow draft advantages of centre board technology with the comfort and seakeeping qualities demanded by cruising owners. Alfred Mylne's practice encompassed numerous designs across different vessel types and sizes, and centre board yachts formed part of his diverse portfolio. The specific context of Design 178 within Mylne's broader work remains incomplete without additional archival documentation.
