Designed 1910
Historical Context
Design 185 dates to 1910, a significant period in A. Mylne & Co.'s development. The firm, established in 1896, was by this time a recognised force in British yacht design. The modest size of the Ginevra design—under 24 feet waterline—suggests it was intended for a modest clientele, typical of the smaller cruising yachts that formed part of Mylne's output alongside larger commissions. The early 20th century saw growing demand for practical, affordable cruising designs. Ginevra's dimensions place her in the category of vessels suitable for amateur owners seeking sea-kindly craft capable of extended cruising. The design reflects the principles Mylne & Co. brought to this market segment throughout their career.
