Notes
The Path Finder PF36 is a new design from the drawing board of Mylne Yacht Design. The design combines traditional Mylne aesthetics with features from commercial ships of the 1920's and 30's to create an intoxicating nostalgia for pre-war exploration vessels. The power at the heart of the 36m yacht is a 450kw electric hybrid propulsion system, running at a maximum 500 rpm to give exceptional service life and beating heart to this small ship. Don't be fooled by the traditional looks and features. As you can see in the video above, the hull form has been extensively tested and optimised to give a remarkable hybrid fuel consumption of less than 40 litres/hour at 10 knots. Coupled with modern levels of interior comfort, and retro modern details such as our super quiet all electric Bolt 18 tenders, this is a yacht to take you, your family, friends and crew on distant voyages and uncharted blue water cruising.

Historical Context
Alfred Mylne's design practice encompassed numerous motor yacht designs throughout the twentieth century. The single screw motor yacht category represents a significant segment of his work during an era when mechanical propulsion was becoming increasingly prevalent in yacht design. Design 6701 occupies a position within this broader body of work, though without specific dating or commissioning information, its precise chronological placement within Mylne's practice remains uncertain. The preservation of 23 drawings suggests this was a design of some substance, though whether it proceeded to construction cannot be determined from the current record.
