Historical Context

Alfred Mylne (1870–1960) was a Scottish naval architect whose practice spanned the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries. His designs encompassed a broad range of vessel types, from racing yachts to cruising auxiliaries and working craft. The auxiliary yawl emerged as a popular small-ship rig during the inter-war period, offering versatility for owners who valued both sailing performance and the security of mechanical propulsion. The presence of Design 208 within Mylne's archive reflects his engagement with this practical and enduring vessel type, though the specific context of its commission and execution cannot be determined from available records.
