Historical Context
The 1930s marked a significant period in British yacht design. The auxiliary cutter offered a practical compromise between traditional sailing and emerging motor technology, appealing to owners seeking reliable offshore performance. Mylne's design practice was prolific during this decade, producing work across multiple classes and applications. Design 331, completed in 1931, falls within this productive period, though detailed records of its development and the circumstances of its commission are not currently documented in the available archive materials.
