Historical Context
Design 19 dates from the latter years of the nineteenth century, when Alfred Mylne was establishing himself as a designer of yachts and small craft. The year 1899 places Jean at a significant moment in yacht design history, as the sport was undergoing considerable evolution in response to changing racing rules and growing demand for seaworthy cruising vessels. Mylne's practice during this period was producing designs across a range of types and sizes, contributing to the broader development of British yacht design in the years preceding the twentieth century.
