Historical Context
Alfred Mylne (1881–1960) was a Scottish yacht designer of considerable reputation whose practice spanned several decades. His designs ranged across multiple vessel types and sizes, reflecting the evolving requirements of yacht design and construction during the early-to-mid twentieth century. Design 587 falls within this broader body of work. The preservation of 68 original drawings for this design demonstrates the detailed documentation Mylne maintained throughout his practice. The incompleteness of certain metadata within the archive record reflects challenges common to historical documentation of this period, where administrative records did not always survive as completely as technical drawings.
