Historical Context
Design No. 14 dates to 1898, placing Olive within A. Mylne & Co.'s first decade of operation. The firm, founded in 1896, was already undertaking commissions for custom sailing and steam yachts during this period. The design year of 1898 suggests Olive was conceived at a time when the practice was refining its approach to moderate-sized yacht design, before the more extensive records of the early twentieth century became established. Limited documentation for designs of this era reflects both the passage of time and the varying survival of business records. The register continues to seek additional information on designs from the 1890s to complete the historical record.
