Historical Context
Design 41, produced by A. Mylne & Co. in 1899, falls within the office's formative years, following its establishment in 1896. This period saw Mylne developing designs across the cruising and racing classes. The Gourock builder P. Jones & Son was one of several Clyde yards with which A. Mylne & Co. collaborated during the early decades. Yachts of Noyra's size and construction method—wooden displacement vessels with moderate dimensions—were characteristic of Scottish yacht design practice at the turn of the twentieth century, serving both private owners and professional fishing or trading purposes.
