Historical Context

Design 80 (Zanetta) dates from 1903, a formative period for A. Mylne & Co. The practice, founded in 1896, was by then developing a consistent output of small cruising yachts and working vessels. G. Hollwey & Sons of Dublin was an active builder during the Edwardian era, constructing vessels to designs from various Scottish offices. The commission to build Maureen demonstrates the geographic reach of Mylne's practice and the established supply chains linking Dublin builders to Scottish designers. Small yachts of this size and type were typical of the leisure sailing market in the early 1900s, when ownership extended beyond the wealthy to middle-class amateur sailors.
