Historical Context
A. Mylne & Co., the renowned Scottish yacht design office established in 1896, developed a wide variety of designs across seven decades. Design 1112 for Arminel falls within the firm's extensive catalogue of auxiliary cruising yachts, a market segment that remained strong throughout the twentieth century. The auxiliary ketch rig—combining the practical advantages of sail with auxiliary engine power—proved popular for cruising vessels from the inter-war period onwards, offering owners extended range and reliability. Without precise dating or builder information, Arminel's position within the firm's output chronology cannot be firmly established, though the design number suggests it belongs to the firm's mature period. The incomplete record underscores the documentary challenges facing any historical register of vessels from this era, particularly for smaller cruising yachts that often left minimal formal records.
