Design No. 99
Valtos
Design 99 represents one of Alfred Mylne's yacht designs from the early twentieth century. A vessel bearing the name Valtos was built to this design in 1904. The design is documented within the Mylne archive by three drawings. While records of the original design specifications, client, and builder remain incomplete in the available archive materials, this design contributes to the body of work produced during a formative period of Mylne's design practice.

Historical Context
Alfred Mylne's practice as a yacht designer spanned several decades, beginning in the late nineteenth century. The early 1900s marked a significant period in his career, during which he produced designs for a range of client commissions. Design 99, materialised in the form of Valtos in 1904, falls within this active period of his practice. The survival of design drawings from this era, though often incomplete in their associated documentation, provides valuable insight into the methods and output of naval architects working at the turn of the century. The specific circumstances of Design 99's commission, construction, and subsequent history await further research and archival discovery.
