Historical Context
Alfred Mylne was a Scottish naval architect whose practice spanned several decades in the twentieth century. The 1930s represented a period of continued activity in his office, producing designs across various yacht types and sizes. Design 394 and its realisation in Fara fall within this period. The interwar years saw evolving approaches to yacht design, influenced by technological developments and changing requirements among yacht owners. However, without specific documentation regarding Fara's intended use, design philosophy, or subsequent service history, the precise context of this particular design remains incomplete.
