Design No. 189
Giralda II
Design 189 represents one of Alfred Mylne's commissions from 1910. The design resulted in the construction of Giralda II, a yacht completed that year. A sister design, Cerceta II, was also built to this specification in 1910. Limited archival information is available for this particular design, and further documentation details remain incomplete.

Historical Context
Alfred Mylne was a prolific Scottish naval architect whose career spanned from the late nineteenth century into the mid-twentieth century. The year 1910 fell within his most active design period, when he produced numerous commissions for private yacht owners. The construction of paired designs—as with Giralda II and Cerceta II—was not uncommon practice, suggesting either a repeat commission or designs produced for clients with similar requirements. The absence of surviving drawings in the archive for Design 189 reflects the incomplete preservation of Mylne's complete body of work, a challenge common to many historical design records.
