Historical Context
Alfred Mylne practised as a yacht designer during an era when detailed drawing sets formed the essential contract between designer and builder. The presence of 19 drawings for Design 375 suggests a design of reasonable complexity, requiring comprehensive documentation for accurate construction. Mylne's archive preserves designs spanning multiple decades and encompassing a diversity of yacht types and sizes. The naming of the original design after the vessel Mara follows conventions of the period, wherein designs were often identified by the first yacht built to those plans. Without date information, the precise chronological position of Design 375 within Mylne's practice remains uncertain.
