Historical Context
Design 76 was produced during A. Mylne & Co.'s established phase, after the office's founding in 1896 and during a period of considerable output. The early 1900s saw the Scottish yacht-building industry at full capacity, with firms like A. Robertson & Sons producing vessels across a range of sizes and types. Sandbank, on the Holy Loch, was a hub of this activity. A. Mylne & Co. worked regularly with builders on the Clyde, establishing designs that would serve both commercial and private clients. The limited documentation of Sunbeam is typical of many designs from this era, where smaller commissions or vessels built for less prominent owners often left minimal archival trace.
