Historical Context

The year 1911 marked a period of consolidation for A. Mylne & Co., which had been established in 1896. By this date, the practice was producing designs across a range of yacht types, from small cruisers to larger racing machines. Design 193 (Vaila) exemplified Mylne's approach to the auxiliary cruising yawl market—a segment that grew steadily as engine reliability improved and boat ownership became less exclusively the preserve of racing-focused clubs. Hilditch of Carrickfergus was an active builder during this era, and Iviza represents one of the documented examples of collaboration between the Mylne office and this Northern Irish yard.
