Historical Context

Alfred Mylne was a Scottish yacht designer of considerable reputation, active throughout the early twentieth century. Design 276 falls within the period when Mylne was producing designs across a range of yacht types. The construction of Oni in 1921 places this design within the interwar period of yacht building. Without additional archival documentation, the broader context of this particular design—its commission, intended use, and design rationale—cannot be established with certainty. The preservation of nine original drawings indicates the design's formal development through Mylne's office.
