Historical Context
Alfred Mylne maintained extensive design records throughout his career as a naval architect and yacht designer. Design 475 forms part of this archive, which documents his work across multiple decades. The numbering system used for designs provides a chronological reference, though precise dating of individual designs is not always possible from archival evidence alone. Single screw motor yachts were a established vessel type during the periods in which Mylne was active. The survival of technical drawings, even when associated metadata has been lost, remains valuable for understanding design practice and the evolution of yacht and small ship design principles.
