Historical Context
Coquette's design date of 1933 places her in the heart of the inter-war period, when A. Mylne & Co. was actively designing small yachts for the Scottish market. The 1930s saw the practice develop a considerable portfolio of modest cruising designs suited to Clyde and west-coast sailing. Tarbert, on Loch Fyne, maintained a tradition of small-boat building and repair throughout this era. Mylne's design practice typically produced both stock designs and bespoke yachts; design 354 may have been offered to other builders or clients. The survival of Coquette contributes to the documentary record of Mylne's inter-war cruising yacht practice.
