Historical Context
Design 1038 belongs to the period 1910, when A. Mylne & Co. was producing a wide range of sailing yacht designs. The auxiliary schooner type was popular during this era, combining the traditional gaff-rigged schooner rig with steam or motor power to assist in calms or adverse conditions. Mylne's office designed numerous vessels of this class for private owners. The lack of surviving documentation regarding Sea Foam's build—including the builder's name, location and construction date—is not unusual for yachts of this period, particularly those that may have changed hands or been maintained outside major shipbuilding centres.
