Historical Context
Alfred Mylne's design practice extended into the 1970s, a period when sailing yacht design was responding to evolving materials and racing rules. Design 472 dates to 1972, placing it within this later phase of Mylne's career. The survival of 19 drawings indicates that the design received thorough development. The completion of Finesse in the same year suggests a relatively direct path from drawing board to construction, though the identity of the builder and commissioning client require further research for the historical record.
