Historical Context
Twin screw motor yachts emerged as a recognised class during the early motor yacht era. The configuration provided significant practical advantages over single-engine designs, particularly for vessels requiring reliable manoeuvrability in confined waters or challenging conditions. Alfred Mylne's design practice encompassed both sailing and motor vessels throughout his career. The surviving drawing set for Design 589.1 constitutes the primary evidence of this design's existence within the archive.
