Historical Context
Alfred Mylne (1870–1960) was one of Scotland's foremost yacht designers, producing designs for cruising yachts, racing vessels, and motor sailers across several decades. His practice encompassed diverse hull types and configurations suited to both commercial and leisure purposes. The centre board type—a retractable keel mechanism—offered designers and owners flexibility in draft and performance characteristics. This type found particular favour in designs intended for coastal cruising and racing in variable conditions. Design 258 occupies a discrete position within Mylne's documented output. The existence of six drawings suggests a design progressed to construction stage, though confirmation of build and subsequent vessel history awaits archival corroboration or external evidence.
