Historical Context
Design 141 was produced during the early operational years of A. Mylne & Co., established in 1896. This period saw the firm establishing its reputation through a diverse output spanning small cruising yachts, day boats, and larger sailing vessels. The employment of established Scottish builders such as James Adam of Gourock was characteristic of Mylne's practice, leveraging the skills and resources of the Clyde and west coast shipbuilding community. Tresta II's survival into the twenty-first century contributes to our understanding of the firm's smaller designs and the standards of wooden yacht construction practised in Edwardian Scotland.
