Historical Context
Alfred Mylne's design practice spanned the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries, during which he produced over 200 yacht designs. The year 1901, when Seamouse was built, falls within Mylne's established period of professional activity. Designs from this era reflect the transition in British yacht design between the Victorian era and the early twentieth century, a period of considerable experimentation in hull form and rig configuration. The name Sea Mouse, retained from Mylne's original designation, was common nomenclature for small working and cruising vessels of the period. The archive's preservation of five drawings for this design demonstrates the level of technical documentation typical of Mylne's practice, though records regarding client patronage and build locations have not survived uniformly.
