Historical Context
Design 168, Culwulla, was created in 1909 during a period when A. Mylne & Co. was at full productive capacity, designing vessels for a wide geographical market. The Sydney build by W. Ford exemplifies the firm's ability to have designs executed by trusted constructors abroad, a common practice for Scottish and English yacht design offices of the era. The early 1900s saw Mylne producing a broad range of cruising craft alongside larger racing yachts, adapting designs to local materials, building traditions, and clientele across the British Empire and beyond.
