Historical Context
Design 266 emerged in 1919, during the early years of A. Mylne & Co.'s work following the First World War. This period saw renewed demand for small cruising yachts and day sailors as recreational sailing resumed. Centre board designs offered practical advantages for British waters, combining shallow draft with stability. Rowlands Dockyard at Bangor was an active builder of small craft, and Anne's construction in 1920 reflects the office's engagement with regional boatyards. The survival of Anne into the modern era makes her a tangible record of Mylne's inter-war small yacht practice.
