Historical Context
The year 1911 places design 191 within A. Mylne & Co.'s first two decades of operation. Alfred Mylne established his design practice in 1896, and by 1911 the office was producing a diverse portfolio spanning racing yachts, cruising craft, and working vessels. The early 20th century was a period of considerable innovation in yacht design, with advances in hull form, rig configuration, and construction methods. Mylne's practice reflected these developments while maintaining strong roots in traditional Scottish and British boat-building practice. The limited surviving documentation for Gunnel reflects broader gaps in the historical record for vessels of this period, particularly those that did not compete in major races or receive contemporary press attention.
