Historical Context

Design 323 (Mouchet) was developed by A. Mylne & Co. during the firm's mature period, when the office was producing designs across a wide range of yacht types for clients throughout Europe. The 1920s and 1930s saw Mylne responding to demand for smaller cruising vessels suitable for continental waters, particularly in Switzerland and France. Lake Geneva, where Aramis IV was built, had an established tradition of yacht building and racing. The Mouchet design reflects Mylne's approach to modest waterline lengths combined with adequate freeboard and draft for safe handling.
